Marco Island Center for the Arts Kicks Off 2025–2026 Musical Interludes Series with Guitarist and Singer Chris Piper

Marco Island, FL – October 6, 2025 – Join us for a fun-filled evening of music as Marco Island Center for the Arts welcomes guitarist, singer, and harmonica player Chris Piper on Thursday, October 23, 2025, at 5:30 p.m.

A Naples-based musician, Chris performs engaging renditions of popular music from the past several decades. His repertoire spans folk, rock, jazz, blues, country, Irish pub tunes, island and surf music, and a mix of feel-good, humorous selections. Chris believes in keeping his performances direct, simple, fun, and honest, always aiming to bring laughter, color, and connection to every gathering.

Originally from the small town of Whitinsville, Massachusetts, Chris began playing guitar at age 13 and has been performing ever since—both as a solo artist and as part of various bands. Raised on a steady diet of blues-influenced classic rock, he has since explored a range of genres, continually refining his singing and guitar-playing skills.

Audiences can look forward to an unforgettable evening as Chris Piper opens the 2025–2026 Musical Interludes Series at the Art Center, 1010 Winterberry Drive, Marco Island, Florida.
