Leadership Team

Mr. Dammika Gamage, also known as Chris, is the relentless force behind The California Sound Solutions, a live FOH audio engineer, technician, musician, and entrepreneur who's been mixing shows since he was 15 years old in Sri Lanka. From back-alley stages to massive festivals, Chris built his reputation with nothing but raw instinct, fearless precision, and an ear that doesn't miss. When he's behind the console, you don't just hear the music, you feel it. Now based in the U.S., Chris carries the spirit of his roots into the future of American live production.

As the CEO, Chris leads with grit, heart, and a deep love for the craft. He takes big risks, solves bigger problems, and pushes his team to hit new levels every time. Off the stage, he's a dedicated husband to Achalanka Paranawithana and proud father to Naveen Gamage, a reminder that greatness isn't just built on gear and shows, but on family and legacy.

Naveen Gamage is an emerging force in the world of music and sound. At just 16, he has already gained valuable hands-on experience in front of house mixing, mastering, and live production, experience earned by working directly in real-world environments along side his father. With a strong musical background and a high honors diploma from Chatsworth Charter High School, where he performed in the jazz band, Naveen blends technical skill with a deep understanding of music and tone.

While his foundation is built on real experience, Naveen continues to sharpen his craft through formal training and professional development. He approaches each project with discipline, curiosity, and a clear respect for the process. Proudly representing his Sri Lankan roots, he is committed to pushing the company forward with integrity, precision, and a mindset grounded in both learning and leadership.
