Christos DC (aka Chris Vrenios) is a Greek-American artist, producer, and touring multi-instrumental musician based in Washington, DC. He recently released his fourth album Tessera (number four in Greek).

The first single Speak the Fire features Bulgarian artist Zafayah. Christos also teamed up with Akae Beka (Vaughn Benjamin of Midnite), Harrison Stafford, the voice of Groundation and Kenyatta Hill, son of Joseph Hill of Culture.

The two tracks Say What You Want and Pressure were mixed by dub mixologist Tippy I Alfred of I Grade Records and Zion I Kings collective.

The last song of the album and the only instrumental one, Boots and Tie, features Christos playing talk box guitar over Sly & Robbie’s track Taxi Gang originally recorded at Channel One Studios in 1980.

"Love is the frequency in which the Creator works through one another", sings Christos.

The album was released on July 28th by Honest Music.
