Chris Crossland: vocals, guitar, keyboard

Chris Crossland wanted to play in a rock band since he was a kid, thanks to The Beatles. He got his first break in 1985 in high school joining The Casteaways as their synth player. Then in medical school in 1992 he helped form the band Big Green Chameleon where as the name implied, the musicians would swap instruments during shows at the many bars in the area. Then in 2000 he helped form The Symptomatics which had a great run with many memorable shows for about 15 years, finally evolving into Betty and the Side Effects. They played for 49'ers coaches and Raiders cheerleaders, roadtripped to LA for a gig, and were the opening band for Los Lonely Boys when they were in Santa Rosa. Playing at Hopmonk to a sold out crowd was his most memorable show.
