Christopher “Isto” White is a Syracuse folk, country, and blues guitarist who knows his craft inside and out. His playing style is as traditional as it gets, rooted in classic American blues and the kind of songwriting that respects the tradition.
He’s written complete albums, not just singles, and covers old American standards with the kind of authenticity that impresses anyone who knows guitar.
If you understand music, you understand what Isto is doing.
He’s a family man who teaches guitar lessons and performs occasionally at bars, restaurants, and venues around Syracuse. His originals carry the weight of someone who’s studied the greats and isn’t trying to reinvent the wheel, just play it right.
When he’s on stage, it’s clear he’s not chasing trends.
He’s keeping something alive.
