Christina
Terry David Mulligan described Edmonton singer/songwriter Christina as “someone you want to keep your eyes and ears on.” Christina blends powerful yet sultry vocals with tight and joyful grooves influenced by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan, Beady Belle, Paula Cole, Erykah Badu, and Prince. “Christina puts the same amount of feeling into her live show as she does into her songwriting. Watching her perform her trademark combination of original songs and classy covers, there are times she seems so intently focused on the music that the rest of the world fades away.” Dan Brodribb, ed magazine.
Christina’s debut album, “The First Time” was co-produced with up and coming Edmonton musicians Thom Bennett and Moni Mathews at Homestead Recorders (Edmonton). Award-winning engineer Barry Allen engineered and mixed the album. The disc combines infectious grooves with soulful songwriting using horns, strings, and the occasional drum sample. Rawlco Radio, responsible for bringing smooth jazz formatting to Western Canada, awarded Christina a grant from their 10K 20 music project for the album. The album was released October 27,2006 at the Stanley A. Milner library theatre and Christina’s first single, “No Regrets” has been getting airplay one some of Edmonton’s hottest stations.
