Chris Lippincott is a composer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist based in Nashville.
His music is a genre-blurring trance — blending synthetic textures, organic instrumentation, and the human voice to create space for contemplation — a sonic landscape where struggle meets grace, and striving gives way to surrender.
His latest full-length, Angel in a Jetstream, takes its title from a moment at a Salvador Dalí sculpture exhibit in Italy — specifically a piece called Angel of Triumph: a back-bent angel playing trumpet toward the sky, described as "a bridge between heaven and earth, a reflection and vehicle of divine light." The image stopped him cold. It spoke to something he'd been circling for a while — that in an increasingly numbing culture, the search for transcendence feels more urgent than ever. Dalí himself had left religion young before returning to explore divinity in his later work. The piercing violin falling in and out of lush chordal harmony felt like it had already been reaching toward the same idea: the tension between the earthly and the divine. The album releases May 22, 2026, with a limited 180g vinyl pressing available for pre-order on Bandcamp.
As a producer and sideman, he has performed and recorded with Ruston Kelly, Maggie Rogers, Lee Ann Womack, Peter Bradley Adams, John Mailander, and others.
