Christine Mariani was born and raised in Long Island, New York. While growing up in New York, Christine first realized her abilities at a vocalist singing with a Christian band. Christine moved to Florida in 1991 and started performing at Tampa Bay’s Show Palace  studying vocal instruction under Deetta Rowe.

In 2000, Christine joined two women’s barbershop harmony groups; Cashmiere and the world renowned Sweet Adeline. In 2005, she traveled to Detroit with the Sweet Adeline chapter, Toast of Tampa, for their international singing competition, for which the group earned 5^th place.

For five years, Christine was the lead vocalist for the BMQ Jazz Quartet, performing in many Tampa Bay area venues, including Blue Heron, Martini’s, the Pier at Clearwater Beach and La Mason in Dunedin, Florida. Christine had the pleasure of performing at Station Square park during the 2003 Clearwater Jazz Festival.

In 2004, Christine joined the annual Jazz instruction camp, Jazz Vermont.

During her first attendance at Jazz Vermont, Christine was offered a scholarship to return the following year, from the groups Director Byron Segal.  Christine has been involved with Jazz Vermont for four years running and the group has been an integral part of her growth as a singer and performer. Jazz Vermont is the inspiration for the song ‘Moonlight in Vermont’ on her debut CD ‘A Walk in the Park’, released in December 2006 with her Producer John Capo of Wavelength Music.

Christine is currently performing at several Tampa Bay area venues with Swing Shift leader Bob Raymond. Christine is a true performer with a gift for delivering a song that is melodic and enchanting.
