Italian-born Cristina Vane sees her American dream realized on her debut record, Nowhere Sounds Lovely. In capturing the artist’s first tour across the U.S, the record chronicles Vane becoming acquainted with the intricacies of American music; from sea to shining sea. Leaning heavily on old school rock and pre-war blues, Vane’s songwr
Judging by the song titles on Americana artist Cristina Vane’s debut full-length album,
Nowhere Sounds Lovely, one might think it’s a collection of covers. The ten tracks have familiar names such as “Blueberry Hill”, “Badlands”, and “Travelin’ Blues”. But Vane’s not offering her interpretations of classics by Fats Domino, Bruce Springsteen, or Blind Willie McTell. Instead, she finds inspiration in the same things that stimulated the other artists: the American landscape, the open road, and the itch to keep moving. Vane was born in Italy and grew up in Europe before heading to the United States to attend university. She graduated from Princeton with a degree in Comparative Literature before heading out and honing her skills. She moved first to California and then to Nashville and has traveled the country in search of its heart and soul.

The origins of American music are rife with sounds and styles from all reaches of the globe, but over the last century or so, the roles have somewhat reversed themselves with blues, jazz, and mountain music being re-dispersed and re-interpreted by musicians worldwide. Enter resonator-playing, foot-stomping
Cristina Vane. Born in Italy to a Sicilian-American father and a Guatemalan mother, Vane grew up between England, France, and Italy, and was fluent in four languages by the time she moved to her fathers’ native United States to attend university at 18 years old. Unlike most of her contemporaries in the music industry, Vane has a taste for pre-war American blues from the likes of Skip James, Robert Johnson, and Blind Willie Johnson. Add a splash of slow western waltzes and haunting Appalachian melodies for good measure and she’s tapped in to the very well from which rock and roll sprung.
