Good friends and musical buddies, Christina & Gene met in Los Angeles, where they are currently based. Gene, originally from Philly, was already living in LA when Christina decide to make the move from NYC in 2014, and when she did, she was looking for a new guitarist. A mutual friend of theirs made the connection and they have been making together ever since. After playing in each other's bands and performing together as part of Hollywood's longest residency with the Saddle Ranch Fiddlers, they knew they had to take their music on the road,  and they have, playing nearly 1,000 shows together in the USA, UK and Europe. 

​

They love artists like Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, Dolly Parton, Bruce Springsteen, Maren Morris, Chris Stapleton, Sam Cooke, Alicia Keys, Allman Brothers, Sheryl Crow, Alanis Morrisette, Sublime, Tom Petty, Johnny Cash and much more. you will hear a bit of these artists' influences on both of their albums, along with the cover songs they love to perform at their events. 

 

Both artists have released individual full-length albums under their own names: Gene’s cinematic self- produced debut, Amusia (2018), and Christina’s genre-bending, soulful catharsis, These are my Whiskey Dreams (2019). The albums tell their stories of the journeys they have made that led them to where they are today and you can find their albums anywhere you stream music.

​

Aside from touring, Gene Micofsky is also a producer and TV/Film composer writing music for companies like Beats, Nike, Comcast, Comedy Central, Sodastream and many others. Not only did Micofsky lend a hand in producing “Hard to Trust in Love,” the third single from Christina’s LP, but he has become an in-demand producer among many Los Angeles artists. Feature films he has contributed music to have featured performances from Malcolm McDowell, Leslie Easterbrook, Gilbert Godfried, Ron Jeremy, Corbin Bersen, & more.
