Prog-Watch 910
This week on Prog-Watch it’s Part Two of my coverage of Sonja Kristina! More of our chat and more great music from Curved Air, and her solo career and collaborations with Ty-Lor and Friends, Cloud 10, and Mask!
Sonja Kristina (born Sonia Christina Shaw; 14 April 1949 in Brentwood, Essex) is an English songwriter, musician and actress, best known for starring in the seminal 1960s musical Hair, and for being the lead vocalist of the classic progressive rock band Curved Air. Kristina is also an experienced voice coach. She was the Rock, Jazz and Musical Theatre tutor for Performing Arts Students at Middlesex University from 1991 to 1999. After Curved Air initially disbanded in the late 1970s, she pursued a solo career which has produced some quite diverse music. She continues to record and perform with a re-formed version of Curved Air to this day.
