About Me


Recent Press: “With Christina on piano and lead vocals, Jen Rock on guitar, and Nate Barrett rocking out on the drums, I was enamored by their passionate stage presence, gorgeous and emotive lyrics, and calm and cool musical integration. Harmony is one of my favorite elements of performance, and when the three musicians blended their unique and varying vocal tones, I was instantly a fan.”-Julia Cochrane, Festival Network Online

“That’s nothing but beautiful!”-Dave Carter, Studio One WET-S FM 89.5
“The opening bars of Safety Line 's title track unfurl like a handful of piano keys tossed from an upper-story window, the crash of disjointed chords followed by a spiraling melodic descent. Christina Horn's haunting voice trails closely behind, at times defying gravity, at times pooling at the bottom of itself. As a classically trained pianist, the local musician's dedication to technique is evident, but there's a transcendence of academia at work here as well—maybe a realization that classical music, so often considered an end in and of itself, can also function as a beginning.”-Leslie Wylie, Metro Pulse
"In years past Knoxville has been blessed to have many strong female voices emerge from our local stages and this year recognition is definitely due for an independent artist who's been working her ass off to put it out there, Christina Horn and her latest musical project Hudson K..." Dustin Milotte, Knoxville520
