Featuring:

Here Comes Treble 

This group of six women initially set out to form a female barbershop quartet but found they so enjoyed each other’s company that they formed Calgary’s only 6 members “Quartet’.  Raging in age from their early 30s to their later 50s and from varying backgrounds, their bond has seen them through triumphs and challenges. They have been together for over a year enjoying their friendship and love for music,  meeting weekly for “Treble Dinners”, but have only started actually SINGING together in the past 5 months. This tightly woven friendship has transformed itself into tightly woven harmonies. We hope you will enjoy “Here Comes Treble”

Raised in a small prairie town in Manitoba, Christina grew up in a musical family where the sounds of southern rock, country, gospel, and blues could often be heard on playing on her Dad’s stereo. The lyrical themes distinctive to Christina’s music provide a rich and meaningful experience for the earnest listener.
