Christene's down to earth approachability and heart-warming songs are quickly winning the hearts of both fan and industry alike.
Reminiscent of Nanci Griffith, Eva Cassidy and Kate Wolf.

Armed with a map, the road ahead, an acoustic guitar, infectious laughter and a gift for storytelling, Christene travels the world compelled to deliver her songs and stories.

From Sweet Patty, a heart-breaking song about her mom's childhood as an orphan to Bus to the Ocean; the true tale of a woman making her way on the bus in San Francisco to set her husband's ashes free to Tumbleweed; a mesmerizing song about what it's like to make peace with life as a traveler to the rousing number Immigrant Day; a song inspired by the Mexican immigrants in San Francisco lining up day after day along Cesar Chavez St. looking for work. Watching Christene perform live is like spending time with your closest friend. Her ease with her audience is alarming ... her stories both funny and tragic and just when you think you know where it's going, she takes you from tears to laughter in a matter of minutes.

An independent musician, Christene handles all her booking and management under her own label, "Little Pumpkin Music" and 6+ months or more out of the year bases herself in London and tours all over Europe. Christene has sold over 11,000 CD's total since the beginning and continues to pick up songwriting awards across the nation.

Born in Torrington, Connecticut, home of Mark Twain and Harriet Beecher-Stowe, she now lives in Austin, Texas, by way of Nashville and San Francisco.

Christene's music is real, and from the heart about who she is, what she's lived and what she knows.
