Chris Isaak is a crooner in the Roy Orbison mould who had been active on the music scene long before he broke through in the late '80s. After graduating with a degree in English and Communication Arts, he put together his first band, Silvertone. This rockabilly outfit remained with Isaak as his permanent backing band.
After acquiring a contract with Warner Brothers Records in 1985, Chris Isaak and the band moved through three years and two albums with little success, apart from "Blue Hotel," which was a hit in France. The debut "Silvertone" was raw and diverse, with country blues mingling with conventional folk ballads. The self-titled follow-up saw him hone his style to sophisticated R&B.
Isaak's 1989 album, "Heart Shaped World," began selling strongly out of the gate and eventually achieved double-platinum status. After working with David Lynch on the movie "Wild At Heart," he had a major hit in December 1990 with "Wicked Game" (US number 6/UK number 10). Both his 1993 album "San Francisco Days" and 1995's "Forever Blue" also achieved gold record status. In 1996, Isaak released "The Baja Sessions."
His acting career has had a parallel path to his singing career with cameo roles in "Married To The Mob" and "Silence Of The Lambs," and a headlining role in "Little Buddha." Isaac also starred in his own critically-acclaimed cable television Showtime series "The Chris Isaak Show," which was launched in March 2001. Isaak's busy touring schedule and growing visibility as an actor kept him out of the recording studio until 2002, when he released Always Got Tonight. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
