Having  been an integral part of both the New York City and London scenes for  many years, the Dublin born vocalist and songwriter is now based in  Northwest Roscommon. Her unique, rich sound was described by The  Guardian as ‘Tobin’s 24 carat voice’. Her expressive range acknowledges  finely acquired jazz, folk and twentieth century European art song  influences. MOJO Music Magazine said of her, “Christine Tobin really  transcends glib genre-fiction…..everything is shot through with an  unmistakable refinement, free-spirited earthiness and giddy romanticism,  this singer-songwriter is in a field of one". The Irish Times wrote,  “Tobin has followed a studiously personal path as a singer and  songwriter that has won her the kind of accolades only bestowed on a  few… This rare and thoroughly personal artist is a one-off…”.  Her live  show ‘A Thousand Kisses Deep’, won a prestigious ‘Herald Angel Award’ at  the Edinburgh Fringe. Earlier in her career she won a BASCA British  Composer Award for her settings of WB Yeats, also “Jazz Vocalist of the  Year” at the Parliamentary Jazz Awards, and “Best Vocalist” at the BBC  Jazz Awards. Christine & her partner Phil Robson curated their own  very successful music series ‘Tobin’s Run on 51’, which ran for over two  years in NYC at the Irish Arts Center. The artists she has worked with  include musicians, Julian Joseph, Django Bates, Ingrid Jensen, Cora  Venus Lunny, Dezron Douglas, Dayna Stephens, Jim Ridl, Matt Brewer &  David Power; poets Paul Muldoon, Eva Salzman, Don Paterson; actor  Gabriel Byrne & film director Mike Figgis. Recent performances  include the London Jazz Festival Nov 2023 with her Returning Weather  band and August 2023 at the Martin Hayes curated Masters of Tradition  festival, Bantry House.
