"Cothron is a young singer-songwriter who uses her jazz trained alto to bring unusual dynamics to well-written, confessional material"
- The Nashville Scene
Kristen Cothron is a gifted singer/songwriter/musician. She combines innate smooth vocal styling and catchy pop writing to make music that is both innovative and intelligent. Her voice, like her songs, is full of irony and authentic emotion. Creating a genre that is original and entirely her own, Kristen takes artistry to a whole new level.
“Love Letters from a Fool,” her first full-length and fully produced release, takes the listener on an insightful journey via clever songwriting and unique vocal delivery - from the spine-tingling intrigue of Dangerous, through the anticipation of Whenever You Come Around, ending with the bittersweet melancholy of Fall.
She has been influenced and inspired by Judy Garland, Billie Holiday, Patsy Cline, Sarah Vaughn and Elvis Costello. Although young by measure of years, Kristen emits the soul of a veteran musician through her music, lyrics, and performance.
