Chris Higbee presented by Hale Law

Chris Higbee began his professional music career as a solo performer singing and playing in Pittsburgh clubs and bars. Through his elder siblings, Higbee was exposed to a wide range of music. Although he listened to country music, especially that of Garth Brooks and Charlie Daniels, Higbee was also fond of rock music, citing Boston and Van Halen as influences on the music he was playing.

In 2000, Higbee founded a band, the PovertyNeck Hillbillies (PNH), named after a hollow on his father’s farm. As the lead of country-rock PNH, Higbee delivered wild and energetic concerts across the country on stages, rooftops, and any other platform from which Higbee could fathom a way to play! His extraordinary fiddle playing became widely known and he was asked to play fiddle alongside one Music Icon Charlie Daniels. PNH performed for seven years, acquiring an international fan base, distributing three records and releasing a No. 2 nationally rated video, “Mr. Right Now,” starring Ben Roethlisberger, Quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

As a solo artist, Higbee has retained the dedicated, loyal PNH fan base while attracting thousands of new fans called “HigbilliesTM,” who follow him from show to show. Higbee has released two solo CDs and is enjoying international support of his hits “Fiddles Rock,” “Roll on By,” “Alright Tonight,” “Barn Party” and “Guilty as Charged.” Higbee is currently performing to large crowds and featuring songs from his self-titled albums including, “Write to Me,” a song dedicated to his wife Melissa. Melissa is currently serving her country and is an Operation Iraqi Freedom Veteran. She was also mobilized as part of Operation Enduring Freedom weeks after she and Higbee exchanged wedding vows.
