Khristina Joy
|
Khristina
was born into a non-musical family, although both her parents loved
dancing, which probably accounts for Khristina's great sense of 'timing'.
She
grew up in an environment of ballroom dancing classes and mid-day
movies, being greatly influenced by the musical comedies of the 1930's
and 1940's - as well as her Nanna's phonogram and wonderful 78 records.
(I particular remember Dezi Arnez's 'You Can in Yucatan'! Ed.)
Her
musical career began at 9 as a highland dancer (she still suffers
from a passion for the bag-pipes), re-surfacing again at age 11, when
she became an altar 'girl' and mastered the art of singing Mass in
Latin.
After
surviving puberty, Khristina decided to commence singing lessons,
and within a few months, was released upon the unsuspecting public.
Quickly she became the lead vocalist for rock bands hungry for her
talent and vivacious personality. |
Khristina has performed with Australia's best musicians, such as Julian
Lee, Mark Isaacs, George Golla, Bob Barnard. Her singing style lends itself to both small
ensembles and big bands.
She has appeared on television,
recorded for ABC Radio several times and her compositions have received considerable
acclaim.
Her warm style has made her
popular with both audiences and peers alike.
Khristina also has a GREAT sound page !!
