What a rarity it is to find an artist who can blend elements of blues, soul, country and folk into one unique expressive form of music they can call their own. The music of CHRISTINE SANTELLI is an art she can truly call her own, as is the interesting story of her talent in musical evolution.
A born music lover from Albany, Christine Santelli began singing, playing, writing and performing at a very young age. Her talents lead to form her first professional band, the now defunct christine and the Dickens, while still in her teens then came the touring.
After performing extensively throughout the northeast with the Dickens, Christine Santelli moved the group to New York City. In 1994, Christine wrote and recorded her first CD,"24 Hours", and soon booked her first international tour in France. Recordings of these performances are now well known as "Live in Paris", Christine's second release. The CD led to tours across South Africa, Spain, and Russia. Subsequently, recordings surfaced from performances in Moscow. The content was so strong, that it was soon released as "Moscow Live".
Back in New York, Christine was voted "Blues Artist of the Year (deserving wider recognition)" by DOWNBEAT MAGAZINE. After several more overseas tours, Christine completed writing and recording her fourth album, "SEASON OF A CHILD", produced by blues-rocker Popa Chubby. This album led to two Scandinavian tours along with major radio play and recognition. Soon, she found herself headlining major festivals and sharing stages with many well-known artists such as Kim Wilson and Eric Burdon.
After touring had settled down, at least for a little while, Christine found the time to write and record her fifth album, "CHRISTINE SANTELLI". The record release was followed by tours throughout Norway and Switzerland, during which Christine performed two shows at the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival, where she shared the bill with revered blues woman, Bonnie Raitt and guitar legend, Steve Cropper.
Christine's latest CD, "TALES FROM THE RED ROOM", is considered by fans and critics to be her best work yet. The album, inspired by Christine's solo acoustic work, has been well received and showcases her versatility within the realms of singing and songwriting. Singer Universe Magazine selected Christine as the "Best Vocalist of the Month" in late 2006 for her song "One More Day". Christine has since toured in Switzerland and Germany, and has been developing the beginnings of her next project.
Today, Christine has a growing legion of devoted fans who can't get enough of her seemingly endless on-stage energy, and her powerful vocal delivery. It is Christine Santelli's golden voice that has dept the twenty-years-worth of fans she has garnered coming back for more. The soulful, gritty, honest and emotive sounds that come out of this petite powerhouse when she sings are unique, moving and instantly familiar and appealing. From career rooted in the blues, to a never ending artistic journey that explores roots music at its finest, such is the tale of Christine Santelli
