A Legend of World Pop-Rock

Music fans around the globe hardly need an introduction to Chris Norman. It was his distinctive husky voice that led the band Kindness, on the advice of their managers, to be renamed Smokey. As the band members later explained, Chris’s “smoky” voice was associated with “smoke,” and the band eventually became known as Smokie.

Chris Norman (born Christopher Ward Norman) was born into a family of artists in Yorkshire, United Kingdom. His father—whose musical tastes were shaped by Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Little Richard, and The Rolling Stones—gave his son his first guitar when Chris was just seven years old.

In 1962, Chris Norman entered Bradford Boys’ School, where he met his future Smokie bandmates Alan Silson and Terry Uttley.

In the beginning, the band went through many different names—The Yen, Essence, Long Side Down, The Elizabethans. However, true creative success came with a fateful name: in 1975, the long-awaited debut album Pass It Around by Smokie was released, created in collaboration with renowned producers and songwriters of the time, Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman.

The year 1978 marked the beginning of Smokie’s golden era. The album The Montreux Album was released; the critically acclaimed single Mexican Girl became a mega-hit; and the song Stumblin’ In by Chris Norman and Suzi Quatro entered the Top 10 of the U.S. Billboard chart. What followed was a year of dazzling fame, concert tours across all continents, and stadiums packed with devoted fans.

A Dazzling Solo Career

Although Chris Norman left Smokie in 1986 to pursue a solo career, his discography is impressive: more than 50 singles and over 30 released albums (9 with Smokie and 25 solo). More than 30 million records have been sold worldwide, and the artist continues to write music and perform concerts to this day.

After successful concerts with Suzi Quatro, Chris Norman collaborated with Dieter Bohlen—the founder, composer, and singer of Modern Talking, Blue System, and CC Catch.

With the song Midnight Lady, Chris Norman conquered the charts in many countries.

The musician lives on the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea and has been married to his wife Linda for more than 50 years. They have five children and four grandchildren. In interviews, Chris Norman has repeatedly highlighted the significance of his marriage. In 2001, the family suffered a major loss when his son Brian died in a motorcycle accident.

The name Chris Norman is associated not only with energetic rock anthems, but also with lyrical songs. That is why the concerts promise to be both rock ’n’ roll-driven and deeply emotional.

A Chris Norman concert is more than just music—it is a meeting with an era. His songs are the soundtrack of life for many generations.

The events on December 7 in Klaipėda at the “Švyturio” Arena, and December 9 in Šiauliai Arena will be a perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in a unique atmosphere and feel the live energy of one of the greatest stars of world rock music.
