Christina Courtin

You know the type: beautiful, talented, smart, stylish, and fun to be around. Yeah, they suck.

Or at least we thought they did — until we met musician Christina Courtin, who recently released her trance-inducing, self-titled debut album.

We were positively smitten and today present the delightful mermaid-haired Brooklynite, who studied classical violin at Juilliard, playing with the likes of Yo-Yo Ma, Kanye, and Beyoncé, before transitioning to honky-tonk-inspired singer/songwriter.

The song shes performing in the video is called Foreign Country — and we get goose bumps just thinking about how amazing her voice sounds in person.

Youll probably wanna punch her in the face.

The voice really reminds me of Ani Difranco, its kinda strange, that slight roughness that makes it all the more pleasing to the ear, kind of how cloth is more comfortable due to the textures.
