"Christine Anderson writes masterpieces."
-Los Angeles Music Awards
"Creative brilliance!"
-Mouvement Nouveau
"Golden voiced Christine Anderson is a world class pianist and composer, who rolled up her sleeves one day and showed the world what she was made of on Live Summer Session. This stunning live debut is as raw and real as music gets, a spectacular specimen of pure musicality, stripped down to a bare bones duet between Anderson's heavenly pipes and possessed-by-Beethoven piano playing. Her ability to improvise like a jazz player and compose much of the music on the fly reveals that this is not only a confident player of consequence, but a champion songwriter with a very bright future."
-Music Connection
"There is no question if the record has a hit single - only how many. A profound body of work, each song is equally strong and brilliant. Beyond spotlighting Christine Anderson's heartbreaking voice and tremendous piano skills, Live Summer Session marks the rise of an outstanding new songwriter in the vein of oldtime John Lennon and Paul McCartney, with chops you don't hear from Fiona Apple or Tori Amos. Enchanting and original, Live Summer Session establishes Christine Anderson as a serious, versatile artist..."
-Discover Magazine
"Uplifting, powerful, and damned-hard to get out of your head! Every little assymetry in the right hand, any slightly mishit note only goes to deepen the experience: This album is not about perfection, but about finally 'being a real person', about a moment in time, when everything feels right or wrong enough to herald a change. They don’t make records like this any more..."

I wasn't allowed to listen to the radio or watch TV when I was a kid growing up, so the only music I heard were the classical records on the old turntable, and the music in my head. To this day, I still listen to the music in my head instead of the radio, and I'd like to invite you to do the same thing! -Christine

On a summer afternoon in Los Angeles CA, Christine Anderson set up a simple microphone in front of the piano in her living room and recorded an entire album LIVE, in a single take. Guided only by a stack of her scribbed unfinished lyrics, she composed as the tape rolled surrendering completely to the inspiration as it consumed her. The highly improvised record Live Summer Session, rocketed the songstress from obscurity to indie stardom virtually overnight after she uploaded four of the 17 tracks to the popular internet portal MySpace. The album sparked immediate intrigue and has been hailed by critics as "creative brilliance" and one of the most powerful and highly respected creative performances by an unsigned artist in the music industry today.
Armed with a red hot street buzz and the credibility that comes with writing all her own music - much of it live and impromptu - Christine is amassing a passionate cult following with her soulful voice heartbreaking songwriting, and world class piano playing. The Los Angeles Music Award winner has appeared in special features on ABC MTV, and MuchMusic, but remains unsigned and independent and in complete artistic control of her music. Follwing the breakthrough success of Live Summer Session production is now underway on her debut studio effort slated for independent release with worldwide distribution in 2008. A purely instrumental record of impromptu piano solos is also in the works.

Just thought I'd drop by and let you know that I have a new song for you to listen to "No More" is the first song to be released on MusicForte from the Time CD. I hope you can find time to listen to it. It is a soft guitar ballad which about the end of a relationship.
Just added "When Death Divides" I wrote this song after losing my Aunty Bet. I loved her very much and she was the closest to me, closer than my own mother. She was a very special person.
Also you might not have heard "I Want You Back"
I hope you like the darker songs so far, from "Where do I Go?" I have featured
"Nothing Goes As Planned" a song about living with poverty and the confusion, the human struggle to survive.
"Man With A Gun" Gave me a lot of positive feedback to which is probably my darkest song yet.
This weeks song is "Always Be The One" which deals with the frustration of keeping your loved one knowing that you do love her."
If you haven't had a chance to listen please do. Next week will feature the last of the songs from "Where Do I Go? as in September I will be featuring songs from the album "Time" which will be available to buy on CD from the middle of next month.
