Khrys pushes the limits of jazz with powerful arrangements and band performances. Not easily categorized, Khrys blends their interests in jazz, anime, video game music (VGM), and Japanese-inspired themes into some of the most well-reviewed and popular music of its genre, whether seen live or on the internet. With over 18 million streams of their works and performances to date, Khrys’s talent is well on display through a creative voice that has its roots in jazz, but expands beyond any limits a single genre can offer.

Their love for music began at age 15 when they composed their first piece for big band — inspired by video games. Khrys went on to study jazz composition under the GRAMMY Award-winning composer/arranger Jim McNeely at Manhattan School of Music. Since graduating in 2017, they arranged and performed most prominently with J-MUSIC Ensemble and continues to do so, but also records on game soundtracks and performs with other bands such as Split Screen, simmerr, and Dom Palombi's Game Night! They’ve worked with prominent musicians and composers like Austin Wintory and the GRAMMY Award-winning Charlie Rosen. They’ve also played alongside musicians like Patrick Bartley, Carlos “insaneintherain” Eiene, Zac Zinger, and Adam Neely.

Khrys started their own big band project called Khrys Williams and the Red Line Arsenal and released their first album First Steps in 2022. With a diverse array of songs from anime, movies, J-Pop, and jazz deep cuts, the album marks the start of Khrys paving their way in the world of music — with hopes that it’ll one day lead to composing works for video games.
