TRIBUTES have been paid to a “gentle and lovely” musician who has died unexpectedly.

Chris Callander, 55, from Higher Bebington, was a popular figure in the city’s music scene through groups such as Liverpool Acoustic and The Monday Club at The Cavern Pub.

As well as his musical talent, he also worked for Afta Thought, which coaches people in education and training. Chris's sister, Anne Sheridan, from Prenton, said Chris died “peacefully at his home” on New Year's Day, and the news has been a massive shock for his family and friends.
