  • Christopher Becker Whitley (31 de agosto de 1960, Houston, Texas – 20 de noviembre de 2005, Houston, Texas) fue un músico de blues y rock, vocalista, compositor y guitarrista. Aclamado por la crítica, Whitley sólo consiguió un moderado éxito comercial, si bien contó con seguidores incondicionales. El estilo de su música, que al principio de su carrera discográfica se asoció con el blues, tiene, en realidad, rasgos de otros muchos géneros, como el folk, el rock contemporáneo y la electrónica, debido a la mezcla de influencias que recibió a lo largo de su juventud.
