Press Reviews "Maybe the crowd was just sex-starved or something, but Christine really got the crowd going." from a Crash Test Dummies review in Glasgow, Scotland 10/29/01 by Michael Devlin. "Luv it! Christine and Company...I just downloaded 'No Moon' and 'Go From Me' and I really love your sound. Will continue to download your tracks and I'm looking forward to buying your album when you launch. I live in Colorado so seeing a show in NYC would be hard, but I'd love to see some videos. Keep up the good work." posted on the Lovepatch website message board 1/30/02 by Trudes of Colorado. "I saw Christine with CTD in London & she is the foxiest, sexiest most gorgeous babe ever!" posted on Lovepatch website message board 2/18/02 by Ian of London, England. "It's not an overstatement to say that Lovepatch is a local supergroup...Many of the songs have the sweetness of a punk-rock Archies, or a smarter Pooh Sticks. Christine, who also writes the songs, has a lovely voice that can be sweet or raunchy." review of show at Luna Lounge, NYC by Marie M. 2/02 "P.S. - about Christine - where have you been hiding the little treasure all these years? What a fox!" from a Crash Test Dummies review in London 10/24/01 by Olaf Duve. "I saw Crash Test Dummies at Glasgow, Scotland yesterday and they were truly amazing. After the show they stuck around for awhile and everyone was really great, but I can't find any info on the incredibly attractive woman on keyboards and vocals anywhere. Who is this woman - how can I contact her?" from a Crash Test Dummies review in Glasgow, Scotland 10/29/01 by David Scott.

Additional Info Christine toured with the Crash Test Dummies in Europe in the Autumn of 2001 filling in for Ellen Ried on keyboards and backing vocals, and she will also be touring Europe, Australia and the USA with Jesse Malin as keyboardist and backing vocalist in the Autumn of 2003.
