Christopher Becker Whitley (August 31, 1960 – November 20, 2005) was an American blues singer-songwriter and guitarist. Whitley achieved modest mainstream success, but had a devoted following. Whitley's style was rooted primarily in blues, but drew on an array of influences and was constantly changing. In 2001, the New York Times described his arc as "restless, moving into noise-rock and minimalist jazz evoking Chet Baker and Sonic Youth as much as Robert Johnson". Whitley was born in Houston, Texas. His father was an art director and his mother was a sculptress. He spent years in Dallas and then Oklahoma, Connecticut, Mexico and Vermont during his youth. His parents "grew up on race radio in the South" and their music tastes (Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf leading to Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix) influenced their son. He learned to play guitar when he was 15.
