Christina Lux
guitar, vocal

She
was twelve or thirteen when the German rockband GURU GURU stayed at her
parents huge old farm house to rehearse their new album.
Quite inspired by their creative work and crazy music, she soon started
playing on her fathers' old guitar.
She
learned a few basic chords and pretty soon she realized that she wanted to learn
more to have a tool to convey her groove and songs. Always in search of her own
unique expression in music she sang at the age of seventeen in a rockband, moved
further on to a fusion band and then sang with a jazz trio for a while.
Even though at the age of twenty she met EDO ZANKI and worked on a
couple of songs with him, she felt it wasn't HER time yet.
She started writing her own songs and autodidactively taught herself more
about guitar.
In 1989
when rocksinger JULE
NEIGEL and her band had their breakthrough, they booked Christina as a
backup singer and she went on 3 tours with them.
SABINE VAN BAAREN was the other girl singer. Sabine and MARIO
ARGANDONA founded the VOCALEROS in
1993;
an outstanding vocal quintet which Christina worked with for six years. They
released two albums with four of her songs. Her voice gained even more colour
and depth through working with the Vocaleros and their unusual arrangements.
In
December 1998
she was invited to go on a
Tour through Germany with FURY IN THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE.
She produced a CD with 5 songs and brought it on the tour.
In September 1999
she supported LONG
JOHN BALDRY on his tour through Germany. In November 1999 she released her
debut "LittleLuxuries"
with Hypertension/Edel contraire records. This album points out her great
talent as a singer/songwriter and guitarist, which is rarely found on the German
music scene.
In
May 2001
she releases her second album "Pure
Love". Two beautifully
arranged songs with guest musicians (on bass: Marius Goldhammer, perc.:
Roland Peil and guitar Chris Jones) and seven live recordings from
February 2001.
Her concerts are filled with improvised moments, an amazing dynamic and
warmth that touches peoples hearts.
Stories about hopes, the flow in life, freedom within, the understanding
of our feelings and the ups and downs in becoming a person who loves themselves
and the things they do. Her guitar and voice fill the room and make it a
beautiful heart-warming performance. Close your eyes and get inspired by lux
soul food.
In December 1999
she supported PAUL
YOUNG on his tour with great success.
In summer 2000
she supported STATUS
QUO and in May 2001
she supported TUCK&PATTI.
Live and studio work with: MICK KARN, JON LORD,
GABRIELLE, OLETA ADAMS and many others.
