Christine Lavin

• Folk
• Singer/Songwriter

Christine Lavin started her professional life as a waitress/bread baker at the Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs, NY in 1975 where she met Dave Van Ronk who encouraged her to study guitar with him in NYC. She took his advice and is now a singer/songwriter/guitarist/recording artist/author/videographer based in New York City. Her latest solo album, her 25th, ON MY WAY TO HOOTERVILLE, includes 10 new songs and one re-worked song, “Ramblin’ Waltz,” a re-telling of her time in 1975 when she was an entourage driver for the first week of Bob Dylan’s iconic “Rolling Thunder Revue” tour.

WHAT SHE IS WORKING ON RIGHT NOW
There is a 90 minute off-Broadway show in development called “InunDATEd,” written by playwright Alice Scovell that the York Theatre produced that showcased 11 performances in October and has 10 songs of Christine’s in it. It was performed by Broadway veterans Kate Rockwell, one of the stars of MEAN GIRLS, and Taylor Crousore, from FORBIDDEN BROADWAY, and very well received.There will be one more workshop production by The York Theatre, and then it will open off-Broadway and be available to theaters across the country.
