Let yourself unwind this holiday season with the soulful sounds of Lola Kristine. This St. Louis native will be home for the holidays from sunny California to serenade you with jazzy Christmas tunes and her inspiring original music. She will be joined by her incredible band from Los Angeles including fellow St. Louis transplants Nathan Pence on bass (Sting, Michael McDonald) and jazz keyboard legend Ryan Marquez (Terence Blanchard, Randy Brecker, Chance the Rapper, Ernie Isley)
Lola has spent the last decade making a name for herself as “the little girl with the big voice,” performing on stages in theaters and clubs in different cities across the country, collaborating with Grammy-award winning artists and establishing herself as a respected songwriter and artist on the West Coast. Since making the move from St. Louis to California in 2017, she has recorded and released two EPs that have been featured on radio, prominent Spotify playlists worldwide and garnered attention from legendary musicians such as Mick Fleetwood. Her soulful song “Bring My Baby Back to Me” was chosen as a finalist in the International Songwriting Competition. On this special evening, Lola will be singing brand new compositions and songs from her album, CHAPTERS. The album has been receiving national airplay and was featured in many notable music magazines. She is excited to share these songs with her hometown on the beautiful Sheldon stage. “Listeners are in for a powerful ride as they dive into CHAPTERS’ ethereal melodies and profound lyrics. As Lola Kristine shares her album and soulful artistry with the world, she continues to inspire all to embrace life’s interconnectedness, love’s power, and the belief that redemption is always possible.” -Galore Music Magazine
