Live at the Library–Christina Dellea

Friday, July 22 at 7:00

Christina has been well known in the Roe Jan (NY) and Berkshire (MA) area as a “versatile and exceptional vocalist with an intrinsic ability to harmonize”. Specializing in contemporary pop music especially from the 60/70/80’s eras, she performs solo with full band sound on keyboard and hand percussion, or with Pop!ternatives. Christina also sings with a Praise/Gospel trio-“Faith, Hope & Love”, various choirs, choruses and as a soloist in churches, at weddings, parties, restaurants and other locales.

Christina is also deeply involved in her community and church activities. She formed a community youth group called “Fun, Food, and Fellowship”.

Christina is a co-founder of Columbia Arts Team, Inc., a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit performing arts organization that promotes original work and the arts in Columbia County and surrounding environs. She has produced, and sung in, CAT shows.

Christina was born and raised in Tarrytown, a suburb of New York City. Coming from a musical family, and never being shy, it wasn’t any surprise to hear her passionately sing at the age of four. She soon joined the school chorus, and the liturgical choir at church. Christina also played the saxophone at an early age, eventually making All County/All State levels. Keeping singing as her focus, she decided to add hand percussion to her act. Christina also became a practicing piano “dabbler”.  She later traveled to begin doing studio work, which eventually brought her to Los Angeles for several years, and then back to upstate New York.

Christina is based in Columbia County where she lives with her husband Phillip. Along with performing throughout the Berkshires and Hudson Valley at festivals, clubs, church events, and private parties Christina has also taught voice lessons both privately, and in classes at the former Renaissance Arts Center (GB, MA).
