Biography

Krysta began her musical journey with neighborhood performances at the local karaoke venue. After public persuasion, Krysta recorded a demo CD with pre-recorded tracks. The project yielded great results and provided a “mark” to base her progression. With each and every performance Krysta’s confidence in her ability grew. Her journey through this process has been eventful. She looks forward to many more years of touching people and making friends through music.
