Let's make this birthday one to remember.

61 years old (Born on June 14, 1963)

Happy Birthday, Chris DeGarmo! You're the rhythm wizard who co-founded Queensrÿche and rocked our worlds with riffs so powerful they could wake up sleeping neighbors three blocks away. From "Silent Lucidity" to Grammy nominations—your guitar strings have seen more action than a backstage pass at an '80s metal concert.

Even though you've stepped back from touring stages, your legacy still shreds louder than ever. May this birthday be filled with laughter as timeless as your solos and cake sweeter than hitting that perfect chord progression. Keep rocking life's rhythms—you've earned every encore (and maybe another Grammy nod)!
