Christy cut her teeth as a professional Americana folk, alt-country, psychedelic rock and roll, singer songwriter in Austin, Texas and toured nationally for a dozen years before heading north. She settled in Butte, Montana where she runs a nonprofit called Working Quiet and a writers in residence program called Dear Butte, while continuing to create music and perform her limited live events. She recently accepted a position as the Program Manager at KBFM, Butte’s quirky, low-powered, non-commercial, community radio station.
