Christina Grace sings Barbra Streisand is a one-woman show, with or without a live band, depending on your budget. She can perform to tracks, be accompanied by a keyboardist, or bring her full band.
Her solo act consists of the music of the legendary female vocalists, such as Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, and many others. Later on in the set she rocks out to some of the classic rock hits of the 80s, 90s and today!
As lead singer of the Johnny Amato Band, Christina rocks your world, singing pop, rock and R&B from the hottest female (and male!) vocalists of today and yesterday.
Meet and greet, and original music (2-song EP) for sale after the show.
Christina Grace is an American singer/songwriter/musician, born and raised in Chicago. She has been singing all her life, and has never been shy on the stage! Her professional career began in Canada, where she met famed Canadian producer/songwriter Randy Moore. Her first CD, “That’s What You Think,” (2001) was released in Canada, Europe and the United States. Her single, “I See Only You,” made it to #4 on the European Indie Charts, and her single, “Better Times,” received airplay in the United States on select radio stations.
Did you know Christina started out by singing rock n roll? She currently performs with the classic rock band, The Johnny Amato Band, all over the Chicagoland area. Christina sings lead vocals on songs by Boston, Rush, Journey, Bon Jovi, Tom Petty, and many more. Christina also has collaborated with lead guitarist Johnny Amato on his original music, and currently Johnny and Christina are in the studio recording new original music.
Recently, she has been privileged to perform as Barbra Streisand in a Vegas-style show right here in Chicago. One of Christina’s biggest influences is Barbra Streisand, and she has always loved her music. As a solo artist, Christina has been featured singing the songs of Streisand, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera and many others. Her high-energy vocals get people moving their feet and dancing in the aisles!
