Chris Celiz

Chris Celiz founded the Beatbox House in New York. He is a beatboxer, singer, and overall musician. He is the 2015 American 2v2 Champion. He is most known for his signature percussive grooves and harmonic sounds. He made it to the finals of the World Beatbox Camp Showcase Battle, and faced off against his fellow Beatbox House member Amit, in an epic battle of flow and musicality, and placed second. Forgoing the simple tricks and gimmicks espoused by other beatboxers, Chris just wants the world to chill, and has made great strides toward this with his beats, which are often considered "too cool for newschool."

He also made it to the Grand Beatbox Battle 2018 with his wildcard cover of Same Drugs by Chance the Rapper. He unfortunately didn't make it past the showcase round, but his one-of-a-kind grooves live on, as always, in our hearts.

Along with Gene Shinozaki, Chris works in the beautifully musical tag team, Spiderhorse. They participated in GBBB 2016-2018 and won first place in 2018 with some amazing covers (Rahzel-If your mother only knew) and some originals too.
