    Christin Cook and Band have been rock's best-kept secret long enough!
    Barreling into 2005, this Houston, TX band elevates their pop/rock game as their newest album cranks out the most fun, energetic, quirky and memorable tracks yet. Through a new group of band members, they have created a new distinctive sound that is winning awards and giving this band recognition throughout the industry.

    Christin is a guitarist/singer-songwriter, noted for her versatile signature vocals, passionately delivers catchy pop/rock, emotionally charged music stylistically compared to Michelle Branch, Alanis Morrisette and Patti Loveless.

    BIO:

    Even before she could speak, Christin Cook was singing her own song.

    Growing up in a recording studio environment, Christin actually cut her first tooth on the reverb knob of the sound equipment. As Christin grew, it became evident that the reverb knob was not the only thing she wanted to sink her teeth into. She developed not only a great desire to sing, play and write music, but to create a message that would impact her generation.

    Christin’s passion for music has been fueled by a first-born, relentless, head strong determination. She pushed through the age of rejection, not to be swayed. “I learned the hard way that you can’t place your own self-worth in the hands of other people. You have to live what you believe with a contagious confidence,” says Christin. She continued to take lessons in music, dance, voice and acting and started her first band at the age of twelve.

    “I learned the hard way that you can’t
    place your own self-worth in
    the hands of other people. You
    have to live what you believe with
    a contagious confidence”

    Driven to begin her life long career in full time music, Christin pushed the limits and finished high school at the age of sixteen. Still focused, she dedicated herself to studying music at Houston Community College, under a full ride scholarship for two years. Despite Christin’s intense schedule of balancing college and a part time music career, she maintained a Deans List status. As soon as finals were through, at the ripe age of eighteen, Christin and her band began traveling the country full time performing her music, in an effort to build relationships that would create her wide spread grass roots following.

    "Christin and her band began traveling
    the country full time performing her
    music in an effort to build relationships
    that would create her wide spread
    grass roots following."

    "We are independent...we book our own shows, drive a car with a trailer that we load and unload ourselves. It's not an easy thing, but there's nothing else I'd rather do," Christin shares. Traveling and leading the band to more than 200 paid dates a year was grueling and required much maturing for this amazing young artist.


    Now 21 years old, she has just finished her sophomore release, For The Love. Light years from her last project, For the Love, produced by Paul Moak, covers the gamut of great, hard hitting, catchy pop/rock to an amazing jazz ballad. Even before the street date of July 23rd, 2002, it was picked up for several compilation CD’s including Guitar Girls, out of Los Angeles, CA. The first release for a compilation went to #11 on MP3 the first week out. Her critically acclaimed songwriting is passionate, transparent and musically excellent. Her heartfelt lyrics intertwined with the music and her stunning vocals make this CD rise to the top.
