Let's make this birthday one to remember.

64 years old (Born on August 31, 1960)

Happy Birthday, Chris Whitley! May your day be as epic and timeless as "Big Sky Country," with celebrations that rock harder than the riffs in "Living with the Law." Your music has always been a soulful journey—captivating hearts, inspiring peers, and making us all wish we could play guitar half as coolly.

Here's hoping this year brings you even more unforgettable moments on stage (and fewer broken strings). Keep strumming those blues-infused melodies; they're aging better than fine wine. Cheers to another trip around the sun filled with laughter, great tunes, and endless applause—you've earned every note!
