Cristina Vane

She grew up in Europe, moving between Walton-on-Thames in England, then France and Italy, before relocating to the United States for her university education when aged 18.

[1][7] She graduated from Princeton University with a degree in Comparative Literature, and then moved to Los Angeles where she worked at McCabe's Guitar Shop.

[6] The resultant album drawing on these experiences was Nowhere Sounds Lovely, recorded with Wynonna Judd's husband, Cactus Moser, and their band, being a mainly acoustic country blues affair.

[4] Vane commented "I've been trying to peel back the layers, to understand who I am, and I think that process has translated to this record", she explained, "The production is straightforward, more minimal, and a bit of a return to my rock roots but still paying homage to the music I've explored since then".

[9] She supported the album's release by undertaking a lengthy nationwide U.S. touring agenda, including some music festivals with the intention of reaching across to Europe in 2023.
