Watson went into a Boston studio in early 2004 to record her debut CD, which includes jazz and blues standards, some original material and fresh arrangements of a few pop covers.
Christina Watson was born in Knoxville, Tennessee, but spent her first 13 years in Middlesboro, Kentucky, where she started learning piano by ear and began singing at a very early age.
Watson surrounds herself with equally talented backup, and it sounds like they've all been jamming together for years, smoothly complementing her voice without overpowering.
