I am so excited to share this with you!!!
For the past ten years, I’ve wanted to share my music with the world in a bigger way.
I’ve always loved how one great song can transform a scene in a film.
Since the beginning, I have been on a mission to find the most powerful tool I could use to help transform people’s lives. I began singing in church when I was 5, performing duets with my mom. I loved singing harmonies with her. In my imagination, I was transported to another place and time. I lived my daydreams in music. When we sang “America The Beautiful” in first grade, I loved hearing my voice rise to the high notes, feeling the energy of the crescendo lifted me up.
Around the same time, I remember going to see “On a Clear Day You Can See Forever” with Barbara Streisand. In it, she sees a psychiatrist under hypnosis to stop smoking and recalls a past life in Victorian England. Instantly through music, Barbara is transformed from a chain smoker into an elegant songstress. This marked the beginning of my mad love affair with music and films.
Music gives expression to feelings difficult to put into words.
Through many more movies and daydreams, music helped me find out who I was and what I was meant to do. Growing up, I had emotions I didn’t know how to express. Music gave me an outlet. So much love has gone into making these dreams a reality.
And now it’s finally here!
Through the album release earlier this year (which I could NOT have done without you), I was approached by Westwood Music Group, a 30 year veteran in the music licensing arena, placing music in feature films and television. Fast-forward to today, I am excited to share they are now a part of my team!
This joint venture is taking my dreams into a new reality. It feels great to have WMG in my circle, reaching out to music supervisors on my behalf.
“Get ready Christine, you are going to kill it!” Vic Kaply shared with me. (He’s one of the partners) And I feel it. And I am bringing all of you with me!
So here are upcoming shows to mark “save the date” in your calendar. We are starting the party at Hotel Café on 10/28. Then it’s off to see the leaves change 11/17 in Sacramento, my other home away from home. (This is where it all began!)
I am a firm believer in celebrating every step of the way. Just think…you have almost 2 months to learn all the lyrics so you can sing along with me at the Hotel Cafe!
I hope summer has been as good to you as it has been for me. I’ve carried all of you in my heart since the Indiegogo campaign last summer. And in my mind, I am already planning the virtual dance party we will be having when I get my first placement!

Sending all my love until next time,
Christine
