Christine’s career now spans an incredible 20 years!
Throughout, she has mesmerized and astounded with her unique blend of soul, blues, pop, jazz, country and folk, and today she remains as powerful, subtle and effortless as ever.  Her latest cd – 'Love' - is the beautiful and amazing result of a special project with Rega Research Ltd, a British hi-fi manufacturer of high standing.

Christine’s live performances have always been wonderfully magical experiences and that same magic has sometimes proved elusive in the recording process; here in this new special collaboration with Rega, her voice is captured whole and unadulterated, as close to those live performances as she’s ever been recorded – a real joy!

Her 7 previous solo albums have seen her convincingly interpret Smoky Robinson, Nick Drake, Robert Wyatt, Tom Waits, Paul Simon, U2 and Lal Waterson, amongst many others - whilst with every year her own self penned or co-written  compositions have developed a distinctive quality - one which connects on a very personal level.

“Christine Collister can sing the birds down off the trees and send them back with a tiny flick of her vocal chords.” Mojo

Christine Collister grew up on the Isle of Man. Her professional recording career began in the mid 1980’s but she first came to national attention singing the 1987 theme for the BBC Television series The Life and Loves Of A She Devil. Following a fruitful association with The Richard Thompson Band,  Christine enjoyed a period of critical and commercial success in a seven year partnership with Clive Gregson. She also toured and recorded with the female super group Daphne’s Flight.
