We have news and a NEW VIDEO below...
Our 2008 CD, Where the Fireworks Are, has gotten airplay on almost 50 stations in North America, and all over "EuroAmericana" radio.This is our fourth CD, recorded withTom Lackner and Joe Woodard of Headless Household and a pack of damn fine musicians, including Karen Hammack, Steve Nelson, Greg Leisz, Kenny Edwards, Kenny Wollesen, Jim Christie, and Dave Palmer.
"...the album radiates in poignancy, yet shimmers in sublime beauty. From the heart-wrenching title track, which serves up an aching does of harsh reality, to the cascading piano that drives the plaintive “Something Pretty,” Where the Fireworks Are is a collection of songs spanning the emotional spectrum. It provides an evocative musical chariot for Christensen to weave her vocal magic."--Brett Leigh Dicks, VCReporter

"On her earlier solo albums, love is driving (1997) and Soul Driver (2001), "Christensen justifies her wandering idiomatic interests-veering from piano-oriented pop of the Carly Simon ilk to L.A. C&W to soul and back--with a lucid artistry and a love of the beautifully-sung note or nicely-sculpted lyric. The title track's horn-fueled feisty R&B/pop energy yields to the emotional, metaphor-fortified sincerity of songs like "Traveling Companion" (in a sinuous 7/8) and "Stone Cupid" (also the name of her label and web-site). Guests include ambient pedal steel hero Greg (Bill Frisell, Joni Mitchell) Liesz and drummer Jim (Dwight Yoakum) Christie. All in all, a happy, luminous occasion"
