Cristina Rae’s Songs
Christina is a Grammy Award-nominated singer who is a popular name in the field of music, especially in Georgia. You can often find her lending her vocal powers to Al Smith’s Midtown Atlanta Jam Session at Apache Café.
In May 2020, Cristina dropped her new single ‘Unconditional.’ Earlier in February, she also won ‘Amateur Night at the Apollo’ for her beautiful cover of ‘In the Air Tonight.’
Her first official job was at the CMA Fest, where she was asked to be the background singer for the renowned country music artist and actor, Trace Adkins. From March 29, 2019, to November 2, 2019, Cristina toured across New York and some other cities for her baroque burlesque tour based on Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The show received acclaim for its talented artists, costumes, opera-esque feel, and of course Cristina’s breath-taking performance.
Before entering the musical scene, Cristina underwent a tonsillectomy, which threatened her entire career. To get to the root of why it would result in her losing her singing abilities, she studied Biology at Tennessee State University. Fortunately, nothing of that sort happened and her career prospered. Apart from singing, Cristina is also a great dancer and has got moves that could kill.
