Across The Stars is another Chris track that was a song before The Alley Cats were officially formed. The song evolved past the straight Em, A, C, D progression once Alex accompanied Chris in this song at a few open mic performances. Add bass and drums and viola (as in, taa-daa!, not an actual viola)! Note: this song is the only song recorded live. Everything was done in OU's studio with the help of Will Baker and his audio talents.
