Presentation:
Kriz Rogers was born Kristina Elisabeth Lindberg in the small village
of Stocka on the east coast of Sweden.
Her parents loved music, especially Swedish folk music and country music.
Even as a small child, the Christmas and Birthday presents they gave her
were toy instruments, and when she was 10 years old, she was given a real
piano accordion and took lessons at the public community music school.
After three terms, her music teacher was replaced by a woman that recognized
what Kriz really wanted to play and that was guitar so she encouraged
Kriz to follow suit which she willingly did.
Kriz had been singing in Sunday school since age six and at age ten to
country songs on the cassettes her daddy gave her.
It came natural for her to start singing while playing guitar. At age
thirteen she made her first public appearance in Stocka in the school
show celebrating the beginning of summer holidays. At the end of the summer
she had written her first country song and now has the satisfaction of
completing over 250 songs.
The country music her father listened to has always been an inspiration
and influence in Kriz's music with artists such as Johnny Horton, Hank
williams, Sr., Buck Owens, Charlie Pride, Tom T. Hall, Patsy Cline, Merle
Haggard, Tammy Wynette, Bonnie Owens and the list goes on and on.
Kriztina Rogers has released two albums with her original songs in the
name Kriztina Åhs & Countryfied.
The albums are called “Kriztinacountry” and “Roads”.
Both have been very well received and given great reviews in Sweden, and
the songs have been played on radio stations all over the world. The song
“Singing My Blues Away” reached number one on Folkradions
listener's chart.
Kriz has performed at major country music festivals in Sweden like Duved,
Lingbo and Vemdalen. In September 2008 she was one of three contestants
in The Swedish Mastership of Country Music called "CountrySM".
She has appeared in two television shows, one on Sweden’s national
TV called “Stjärnskott” and one in the states on Nashville
Broadcasting Network called “Special Presentation”.
Kriz recently married ICMA Traditional Male Country Vocalist of the year
2008, Chase Rogers of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Both as CMA/BMI singers,
songwriters and recording artist plan to tour as a duet in Europe and
the states.
They have already written several songs which they plan to record in
the very near future. They plan to continue their dreams and soon to combine
their solo careers into one act as "Chase N' Kriztina".
Chase was recently quoted as saying, "I chased this little Swedish
angel for a very short time, however, the Chase will always be there as
this is the very love of my life. What more could a man want? Kriz is
a very beautifully talented woman with an absolute heart of gold and a
kindred spirit like none other that I have met.
This is a God-Sent match, therefore, you have 'Chase N' Kriztina'."
As a further note, Kriz fluently speaks and writes perfectly grammatical
English! You can expect alot of things from this Swedish Angel as she
has so much to offer to the music world. She and Chase will be "Chase
N' Kriztina".
