Christina Lacoste

Music Genre: 
Band Description: 

Hi neighbors,
I’ve been playing live music in the Boston for a long time! You may have come across Lady Lupine, a band I sing lead vocals for. We frequent beloved local haunts like Toad and The Burren.
I’m excited to share my solo work with the community. It’s a mixture of stripped down Lady Lupine songs, a couple covers and my newest solo tunes. It is probably best described as Folk Soul. Come say hi for a mellow set.
