Chris picked up the bass for the first time at the age of 16. His prior musical experience included singing in his church choir and listening to his father's Ella Fitzgerald records. Among the influences for him picking up the bass was the debut of The Beatles.

Squire moved to Chandler, Arizona, in 2008 with his third wife, Scotland Squire. In May 2015, he was diagnosed with leukemia. At that time, he announced that he'd be taking a break from performing with YES in order to receive treatment. But after only about a month he passed away on June 27, 2015.
