Chris Walla (born November 2, 1975 in Bothell, Washington) is the guitarist and producer for the band Death Cab for Cutie. He released his debut solo album Field Manual on January 29, 2008 on Barsuk records. He has released previous solo material exclusively from his website, including material from an early solo project called Martin Youth Auxiliary. Most of these releases have never been fully exposed to the general public in any other form. Under Martin Youth Auxiliary, one cassette was recorded and released in 1999 on elsinor records; only several dozen copies were made. Walla has produced, recorded and mixed many albums of artists such as The Decemberists, Nada Surf, The Long Winters, Travis Morrison (formerly of The Dismemberment Plan), The Velvet Teen, Hot Hot Heat, and many more. His most recent project as a producer was the album The Con by Tegan and Sara which was released on July 24, 2007.

Genevieve is one of my favourite songs at the moment! Chris Walla is amazing and so are Death Cab. I went to see Death Cab a little while back, It would have been cool if Chris had done some of his solo stuff aswell! Just an idea :p

sounds much like DCFC/Gibbard?? What the hell do you expect, he plays the guitar there! I think it's no wonder that his sound is quite similar to Death Cab, he even sings there, too...
