Christine Santelli at the Salem Roadhouse Cafe

Salem Roadhouse Cafe is hosting an evening with  Christine Santelli beginning at 8pm with doors opening at 7:30pm. 

"What a rarity it is to find an artist who can blend elements of blues, soul, country and folk into one unique expressive form of music they can call their own.  Christine has a growing legion of devoted fans who can't get enough of her seemingly endless on-stage energy, and her powerful vocal delivery.  It is Christine Santelli's golden voice that has kept the twenty-years-worth of fans she has garnered coming back for more.  The soulful, gritty, honest and emotive sounds that come out of this petite powerhouse when she sings are unique, moving and instantly familiar and appealing.  From a career rooted in the blues, to a never ending artistic journey that explores roots music at its finest, such is the tale of Christine Santelli. Her music is an art she can truly call her own."

Christine has performed at the Roadhouse twice before, and has solidly entertained each time, first as a solo act, and then last year she was accompanied by an amazingly talented guitarist, who together mezmerized us with Christine's original songs as well as covers from a diverse range of musical genres.  For this year's show, Santelli promises another duo, and we are sure that it will again be a dynamic, creative and musically excellent performance.   This show is on the day before Mother's Day - why not bring mom out for a fun, classy evening of entertainment?
