RECORDINGS
"She's not one to shy away from a challenge in both her lyrics and her music, and it makes for a daringly memorable batch of songs."
-CD Baby Review,
Making Friends with Ghosts
From 2005-2010, Kristen independently recorded, produced, and released five full-length albums using an analog 8-track recorder, one microphone, and the very best in makeshift bricolage. Each album was lovingly engineered on a nonexistent budget, with the help of a slew of talented instrumentalists on strings, woodwinds, brass, accordion, and more.
