Christopher Evan Welch (born 1982) is an American actor and former voice actor, most well-known for playing Tails in the cartoon The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog when he was 11. When Sonic Christmas Blast was released in December 1996, he was replaced by an unknown voice actor due to the fact his voice had changed (According to the Internet Movie Database, the unknown voice actor that replaced him in was found out to be Chris Turner). Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog was the only cartoon series in which he was a voice actor on and his TV guest spots include L&O: SVU, L&O: CI, Third Watch, The Practice and Whoopi. He has appeared in such films including The Stepford Wives, The Interpreter, The Hoax, Keane, The Good Shepherd, Chinese Coffee, and War of the Worlds. In the early 1990s, he was also the lead singer of the popular, whimsical Seattle-based band The Ottoman Bigwigs, which was named after the crossword puzzle clue for 'emir.' They disbanded upon Welch's move to New York City to pursue his acting career, but are reuniting for shows at the Seattle's Bumbershoot Festival over Labor Day weekend 2008 as well as at Seattle Repertory Theatre in early 2009.
