About Kristina:
Not long after Kristina Murray moved to Nashville in summer of 2014, she accepted a friends offer to start singing at the American Legion Post 82. Tucked away on the fringes of East Nashville, the Legion had not yet become the citys best destination for hearing traditional country music from a new generation of aspiring artists. From the stage, she watched as the crowds during Honky-Tonk Tuesdays grew over time, from about a dozen listeners to a full dance floor. All the while she nurtured her natural talent for songwriting and performing, collecting and crafting material that would form her second album, the highly recommended Southern Ambrosia.

Resplendent with pedal steel and electric guitar, the project draws on her love of classic country and Southern rock and both influences get their rightful due on Southern Ambrosia (produced by Nashville musician and producer Michael Rinne). The album title comes from a lyric in Strong Blood, nestled between references to the famous peaches of her native Georgia as well as the Allman Brothers iconic album, Eat a Peach.

Says Rolling Stone magazine:
Country-rock with a deep, poetic reverence for the land in which it was bornMurray continues this exploration with an ear finely tuned to the details of life below the Mason-Dixon: she highlights the every day glories, the long-standing traditions and the tainted pasts, too. - Rolling Stone 10 New Country Artists You Need To Know
