Kristina Antuna is an 18 year old singer/songwriter from Las Vegas, Nevada. She first gained recognition when she and her former band were picked as the winners of Band Battle for Bite on Mix 94.1, a top Vegas radio station. This gave her the amazing opportunity to perform at The House of Blues and headline at The Bite of Las Vegas alongside other national acts.
Kristina always thought she was Broadway bound. Then, two years ago, while attending a music camp, she mistakenly walked into the song-writing class, and that’s when fate stepped in. Little did she know, that this happy accident would change her life. There she met Rob Seals and many other talented songwriters from all walks of life. They helped her to realize she could write songs, and in the process, she found her voice. Kristina’s music has become a contemporary twist on the folk music of the 1960’s and 70’s.
Her passion for music and performing has always been Kristina's first love. While most of her peers were wondering who would take them to prom, Kristina's only concern was how she would get her music heard.
Kristina has recently signed with Most Excellent Management in Los Angeles and is presently producing new songs for an upcoming album and tour.
Kristina hopes to follow in the steps of other Vegas musicians: The Killers, Panic! At The Disco, and even Neyo. With one exception, she's a girl.
