Christine Lavin
|
Christine Lavin is a New York City based singer, songwriter, and promoter of contemporary folk music. She has recorded numerous solo albums, and has also recorded with other female folk artists under the name Four Bitchin' Babes. She has also put together several compilation albums of contemporary folk artists, including On a Winter's Night.
She is known for her sense of humor, which is expressed in both her music and her onstage performances. Many of her songs alternate between emotional reflections on romance and outright comedy. Two of her more famous songs include Sensitive New Age Guys and Bald Headed Men.
In her youth, Lavin was a Cheerleader and she still has impressive baton-twirling skills; she often ends a concert by twirling a glow-in-the-dark Baton with the house lights turned off as she leaves the stage.
