Christine and the Queens
Also known as: Redcar, Chris
Vocal Range: C3-A5
Chris has been straddling the line between accessible and avant-garde for almost a decade now, with each release becoming more raw with visceral emotion and taking on explorations of gender, identity and love. Seamlessly delivering emotive performances in both French & English, Chris has really grown into his artistry, as evidenced by his evolution of performances and albums. As a performer, Chris is mesmerising – often displaying intense drama and conviction in how he moves and delivers his songs. Vocally, Chris is particularly skilled at delivering potent belts which are often well supported and sustained at length. In addition, he has also spent some time developing a beautiful ethereal falsetto which has been used to create wonderful ambience on his latest album. An artist who only continues to grow and surprise (and so far his range has increased with each album too!)
