About Me

Kristen Maxfield, a 25 year-old singer, songwriter, is the daughter of Eastman School of Music graduates Jennifer and Dennis Maxfield. Singing and playing the piano have always been a big part of her life. While growing up, she had the opportunity of performing with some wonderful and talented musicians (e.g. Kenny Rogers, Sting and Styx). By the age of 19 she had written, produced and distributed her first CD, â€œTwisted Realityâ€. She earned a Bachelor of Music Degree in Vocal Jazz Performance, with High Honors, from the University of the Arts (Philadelphia). After completing an internship with the Recording Academy, Kristen moved to NYC where she is currently the Executive Director of Arabesque Recordings LLC (Jazz and Classical Label). Presently, she is working on her new album, â€œBringin' It Homeâ€, with some of NYCâ€™s finest musicians (e.g. Dan Stein, Miles Kennedy, Jim Antonucci, Mike Rens, and Janene Otten). Kristen is also a backup vocalist, along with Ms. Carol Brevard-Stern, for the group â€œThe Square Eggâ€.
