Chris White (musician)

Chris White (born Christopher Taylor White, 7 March 1943) was the bass guitarist and songwriter with the 1960s English band The Zombies.

Although born in Barnet, Hertfordshire, he was brought up in Markyate where his parents owned a village shop. He replaced the band's initial bassist, Paul Arnold, because his father had somewhere the band could use for rehearsals.

White was one of the band's two main songwriters, alongside Rod Argent, and penned two tracks on their USA debut LP, The Zombies released in January 1965. On the UK debut release, Begin Here, he had 4 tracks, one co-written with Argent. For the Zombies' performances in the 1965 film Bunny Lake Is Missing White wrote Nothing's Changed and Remember You. He also wrote seven of the twelve songs on the group's final album and generally acknowledged masterpiece, Odessey and Oracle, with Argent contributing the remainder.

Following the demise of the Zombies, White contributed songwriting and production work to Colin Blunstone's solo career and Rod Argent's new band, Argent. In a later role as a record company A&R man, he was instrumental in discovering the band Dire Straits.

White currently resides in London.
