<div>
I hope you are enjoying this cooler weather and looking forward to the holiday season of Thanksgiving and Christmas! I just wanted to shoot you a little note and let you know what's been going on with The Kristina Craig Band! <br />
<div>
<div>
We just got finished with The Inspirational Country Music Awards in October! We were up for "Vocal Group of the Year"! Tho we didn't win the award we had the absolute best time at the award show! I was blessed to be a presenter for the 2013 Faith Family & Country, Movie of the Year, and got to meet the most precious people! The night was truly a success!</div>
<div>
We are getting ready to head to Colorado for a Fair Managers Showcase in the beginning of November for a few days! I hope we get to see the mountains while we are there, as well as fill up our calendar with Bookings for this next summer! We are planning our 2014 "Small Town America Tour" and are so excited to be able to travel the United States and go places we've never been! We are seeking after Sponsorship's to help fund this Tour, because there will be A TON of ministry going on and we don't want a lack of money to stop us from going! Lords knows, Sponsor or no sponsor, If the Lord tells us to go, we are going, and gladly so=) </div>
<div>
Hightower Booking is really getting off the ground! Donna Barker (owner of Hightower and Our Bass player=) is getting quite the roster of artists from all different genres of music and is also expanding and adding agents to the Hightower Team! We are so excited of how quickly this has taken off!</div>
<div>
We definitely miss every single place we played at last year and are so excited to come back! We are still telling story's of your town, and how each fan that came to a show has blessed our hearts!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

This is the review they wrote about my new album,'Angel With Tattoos'.<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Kristina Craig's new 12-song album, Angel With Tattoos, has
been released and is already making some noise. The album kicks off with a
delightful harmony piece that leads into the feel-good, up-tempo song,
"Nowhere To Be." This commercial Country gem has slick production
that allows Craig's vocal to shine. Craig's songwriting is also very
impressive, as she co-wrote every song on the album.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The title track "Angel With Tattoos" is a well
crafted Country song that reminds us blessings come in all different forms,
which is something we all need to remember. Another standout track is
"Glory Shine," which is an up-tempo Praise song, which adds a nice
touch to this album. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Craig's vocal has a wonderful familiarity to it that is going to help her succeed. Craig
says this album was a long time in the making, so let's hope another one comes
soon!</div>
