Chrystina never quite conformed, sacrificing her social life from day one. Song writing from the age of 10, Chrystina loved performing whether in or out of school.
Chrystina enrolled at the famous “Arts Educational School” in 1999 staying there for 4 yrs. In that time she covered academic and vocational studies such as: ballet, jazz, tap, vocal performance, flute, drama and taught her self to play the piano.

After covering such a broad range of subjects, Chrystina found that her focus needed more specialized guidance, so in 2004 she went to The Christine Holmes Academy of Performing and Recording Arts, where she honed her writing and performing skills.

It was time to bite the bullet and after an eventful year Chrystina has certainly brought it all to the table with her Debut Album.
“Bitter Twisted Wrong”
"I would say it is an expression of my emotions through the challenging situations I've faced," Says Chrystina. I’m glad I had the opportunity.
Chrystina makes no apology for her lyrics shooting slightly below the belt; the result is an album of rare insight and maturity for someone of only 21 and produced with a quality ready for the charts.
Chrystina’s style has been influenced by artists such as Alanis Morisette, Pink and Evanesence to Aretha Franklin, who’s music gives some of Chrystina’s tracks that soulful edge.
Chrystina and Producer Phillip Goss worked well together to create a fresh sound, like it or not.
Apart from this website the album is also available from iTunes and cdbaby.
Since getting the band together in January 07 they have been gigging hard, playing venues in the local area of Aylesbury and also gigs in Camden, Shepherds Bush, Islington, Shoreditch and Nottinghill.
In June 07 they played at the opening party of “Londoncalling2007” at “Earls Court” A very important event for anyone in the music industry, (they’re back again this year.)
Chrystina and her band played the main stage at the Eco Festival in Carshalton, Surrey and have been invited back this August.
Chrystina recently recorded an acoustic set and interview for BBC Radio Birmingham, it went very well. They recently played a gig at the amazing “Storm” in Leicester Square, where they had loads of pictures taken the gig was a great way to finish 2007!
Chrystina is constantly writing new material; her song writing and performing skills have evolved into a spectacular live show.
Chrystina and her band have given the studio material an exciting live signature and have created some great new songs with powerful guitar and distinctive drums. The band, skilled and passionate musicians who are totally into what they do and don’t follow all the rules.
Chrystina and the band have recorded a video for “Your Demise”, so watch this space, or should I say watch this myspace!
So remember, look out for the new pictures and the amazing video to be screened very soon on “myspace” and “youtube”. We hope to begin work on the new album later this year, we can’t wait!

As you may or may not be aware SoundARC hold a charity gig every year at Club 85 in Hitchin in aid of the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, and this year we are going to try something a little different from previous years.
This year we are going to take over the club and host 37 acts in one weekend putting full bands upstairs and acoustic acts downstairs in an event that we are calling ARCfest!
It all starts on Friday 4th December at 7pm and then continues on through Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th from 12pm-11pm
As well as raising money for the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, ARCfest will showcase all the different genres of bands that we at SoundARC have come across over the last 4 and a half years. Over this weekend a lot of the acts that you will see don’t get a chance to play a great local venue like Club 85, So as well as hearing new music you will see all manors of genres and styles from acoustic - Metal - Indie - Rock - Punk - Electro - Ska - Funk - Hip Hop/Rap - Alternative - Rhythm & Blues - Reggae - Grunge and loads more that I cant remember!
Hope you like the bands on our player, we have uploaded new tracks from A New Day & The Fallthrough this week.
Our latest release, a ltd edition split 7" featuring Giving Chase (US)
& A New Day (UK) is now available and selling fast. There was only
