Many Shoreline residents know Christina Shinkle as their beloved piano teacher. This week her students and their families as well as the general public will have the opportunity to see another side of their teacher’s musicianship. The Shoreline musician and songwriter will offer a performance, along with her full band, at The Bounty in North City at 7551 15th Ave NE, Shoreline this Friday, March 27th at 8pm.
Shinkle has been a professional musician in the Seattle area since 1992, working most of that time supporting other artists. She started focusing on her own songs about 4 years ago and now performs both as a solo artist and with her band. Shinkle offers thoughtful, intelligent, introspective lyrics and music that are not defined by a single genre. She has been fronting her current band for over a year, working with musicians she has known and worked with over the years. Gordon Tibbits plays bass and guitar and Ben Keller plays drums in the band.
Coming out of appearances in songwriter circles and open mike events for the last few years, this week's show provides the community an opportunity to see Shinkle's recent work in full performance format with her band.
Accomplished songwriter Ann Gates Fiser will open the show. The show will be "Pay What You Will” and is for all ages. The Bounty will have beer and wine as well as coffee shop fare available during the show.
