From the first fiery note to the last whispery phrase, Christine Rosander's sultry voice grabs hold and doesn't let go, stirring up yearning and desire long after a song has ended. Her strong and sexy style blends playful to poignant influences including the emotion of Rickie Lee Jones, the folk voice of Joni Mitchell, the sophisticated blues of Nina Simone, the storytelling panache of Billie Holiday, the rock-jazz feeling of Donald Fagan, the country pop attitude of the Dixie Chicks, and powerful song writing influences such as the Beatles, CSNY, Bread, and many more. Each becomes undeniably her own. Her trio will include accomplished musicians Zac Matthews on bass and percussionist, Rich Mangicaro.
