The best kept secret in music
Press
Out of Fort Worth Texas and originally in a band as backup vocals only, Christina was inspired to learn guitar and sing out on her own. Armed with a red Takamine guitar, lots of lyrics with no music and a 13 year old daughter who loved to sing and play guitar along side her, thats exactly what she did.
Together they make up the sound that they try so hard to create. Adding not only their love for music, and lyrical prose, but their gift of giving their soul in their words that they sing.
Her major and notable influences have been; John Prine, Beth Hart, Bob Dylan, Lucinda Williams, The Rolling Stones, Kasey Chambers, Janis Joplin, Shelby Lynne and a recent addition is Julie Neumark.
Christina finds deep inspiration from other Indy artists and loves genres of Folk, Celtic and Bluegrass. Especially off the beaten track original music. Which she claims is her favorite. - JDominion

Bio
John Prine was my major influence. As well as Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp and Loretta Lynn.
I began playing guitar with a very unique finger picking style and was never able to deviate from it. Which makes our sound a little different I think. We have a lot of fun playing music and our voices go together perfectly in our harmonies on account of our voices being so alike.
