About Me |
|
| Daughter of legendary guitarist Jerry Donahue and granddaughter of the late 1940s/50s Big Band leader Sam Donahue , Kristina is a natural talent; singing and dancing before she could walk or talk. She made her rock and roll debut at the 1999 Fairport Convention Cropredy Festival singing with Fairport Convention to an audience of more than 20,000 people. She was invited back the following year, performing a full set for both nights of the festival which garnered rave reviews from MOJO Magazine for her stage presence and versatility as a vocalist. "(She made) an immediate impression over the loudest band of the weekend, seemingly un-intimidated by such an extraordinarily difficult song or backing that bore the might of musical history." Kristina has since sung with Robert Plant, Maddy Prior, Iain Matthews, Fairport Convention, and Slow Car Crash and has spent the past two years performing in various Los Angeles bands, focusing on (and currently touring with) a UK based Folk Rock project called, The Gathering , creating a unique synergy for her avid audience all while weaving her dark vocal timbre and earthy graciousness to lull the listener and captivate and audience of 25 or 25,000. ..::Wanna support Kristina?::..
