Whoever thought Gospel music couldn’t be infused with Reggae beats and a NeoSoul style hasn’t heard Kristine Alicia. This Jamaican-born singer and songwriter has managed to integrate these diverse sounds with an energetic stage presence and a strong, sultry voice that resonates a unique style all her own. With powerful lyrics and an emotional delivery, this soulful songstress clearly has something to say and commands attention to her message with the gift of her voice.
From her first public singing performance at the age of 9 in her hometown of Kingston, it was obvious that this rising star was meant to make her mark on the Christian music world. Almost from birth her talents were cultivated by her father, a classical musician and minister who taught her and her five younger siblings to sing and play the piano, and encouraged them to use their talents in church. What started out as a family pastime quickly became her passion, as participation in church and school choirs fueled her love for the stage.
Having migrated with her family to the U.S. at the age of 13, Kristine Alicia has held on tightly to her Caribbean roots while growing in her faith and learning how to use her voice to express her beliefs. In her teens, she competed in numerous Assemblies of God Fine Arts Festivals in the duet category, winning at the local, state, and national levels with her distinctive vocal style.
