In a time when Pro Tools assembled vocals are industry-prefered to real genius talent, when female rock singers are barred from Rock radio formats, when Hip Hop is laureled as the "new Rock," at the wrong time but the right place comes Kristeen Young.

She is too important an artist to be ignored. She is a serious rock musician who composes passionate rock music and sings in a unique voice that is powerful and emotional, heard once in every generation.

Despite her extraordinary vocal power Kristeen is not a rock chick, a biker chick or a weightlifter. She is, ironically, a lithe, glamourous, raven-haired female. Each of her live performances are a memorable experience. Wherever she plays she makes new fans of her audiences.

I have just completed her second CD with me. David Bowie sang a duet with her on the first one entitled Breasticles. On her new CD Brian Molko duets with Kristeen. Could there be any better endorsements of her talent and writing?
