In My Chair
The new CD from Christine Havrilla. Now available!
Christine Havrilla's latest album, "In My Chair," demonstrates her ever-evolving musicianship. In a very personal and solo endeavor, Christine sings and plays all instruments in her most ambitious effort to date. Writing and producing "In My Chair" from her home studio, listeners hear raw authenticity as Christine’s gritty vocals and overall musicality breathe life into fifteen engaging songs. Christine’s strength on guitar is ever-present. She delivers “In My Chair” in the unabashed style which has garnered her critical praise.
"In My Chair," released independently in May 2008, delivers an eclectic collection of songs as did its predecessor, “Velocity.” However with “In My Chair,” Havrilla showcases her songwriting abilities and instrumental prowess with an organic, intimate approach. Along with her earlier albums, Christine has a collection of songs that clearly define her as a pop singer/songwriter at the peak of her form.
Sept 11th is a done deal. it is called the Square. On E Market St in Highland Square in Akron, OH. u can get the addy off myspace, my email is acting up right now and i can't retrieve it. I can look into the 18th as well, but it wont be at the same place.
hey ya... they wanna do surgery... i'm goin with the brandy first... heh. i can sing now, in the mean time. i am off total voice rest. as for sept 11th, i might be able to get this gig i do on thurdays and have you sit in. you can have the cash for your travels, it pays $75 plus tips and we usually run a raffle and make a good amount. lemme know if that sounds fun and i'll work on it.
