Album Notes

Kristi Warner is an up and coming country music artist hailing from Clovis, CA and Nashville bound.

At the age of four years old, Kristi walked around her house using a hairbrush as a microphone singing I Saw the Light by Wynonna Judd to her father (her biggest fan). It was then that she knew that she wanted someday to become a country singing star.

She started her vocal training in high school with her current vocal coach, Jenny Myers, in Fresno, CA. They decided to give the school talent show a try and at 16 she won studio time in a local recording studio. She cut her first vocal demo and realized her dream of becoming a country artist was beginning to happen.

In November of 2004, Kristi entered a talent competition in Nashville, TN and came in first place in the talent showcase. On a return trip to Nashville in April 2005, Kristi was introduced to Nashville songwriter/producer, David Norris. The result of this meeting has been the production of Kristi's first album - Read My Lipstick.

This album was recorded with Nashville producer David Norris and co-producer Jim Hyatt. Kristi was also blessed to have a great supporting cast...

Bruce Bouton - Pedal Steel & Dobro

She was also fortunate to sing the duet, Just Like in the Movies, with Colt Prather, currently signed with Warner Bros.

Kristi hopes to be a strong female role model and wants to stress to her fans the importance of independence, individuality, strong morals, and the best remedy for life at times - to kick back and have fun.
