Christine Tier launch: Rivoli Wed. 7 p.m.

Quick reminder:

AN INTRIGUING MUSIC STORY: AN ARTIST
WHO BLENDS TWO DEMANDING CAREERS

Christine Tier makes music that's a blend of sultry, irresistible songs that seamlessly shifts between smooth jazz, folk, and thoughtful alternative pop.  She launches her self-titled CD with a band of first-rate Toronto musicians at the Rivoli tomorrow (Wednesday May 23).

That she mixes a deeply-felt musical sensibility with a career as a lawyer seems to work for her - as if the heart controlled the music, and the brain her application of the law.  It's never that simple, of course, or so clearly defined.
       
Laughingly, she tells friends that she needs a new career every decade, and if reality might obstruct that dream, she's determined to be the very best she can be at both professions.  This, she figures, could be the start of new career.

There's a story here.  It would be worthwhile to cover it, and tell your readers/listeners/viewers about it.  This is an early show: Music starts at 7.30. Refreshments, as they say, served...

Who:  Singer, songwriter - and lawyer - Christine Tier, supported by some of Toronto's best players, including Nick "Brownman" Ali, John Yelland, Alan Hetherington, Robert Reid and Susan Martinelli.
What: Thoughtful, intelligent music informed by jazz and pop influences.
Why: To help launch her debut CD
Where: Rivoli, 334 Queen St. W., Toronto.
When: Wednesday May 23.  Note: This is an early show, with doors open 7 p.m.; show at 8 p.m.
