Christina Grimm performs heartfelt songs of love, loss, and transcendence that take the listener on inner journeys. Rooted in the folk-rock tradition, Grimm began playing and recording her own music while at UCLA Film School. After a stint as a screenwriter, she moved to Germany and performed original music there with several bands.
