CHRISSY PASTORE

Chrissy Pastore is a seventeen year old songwriter, singer, and musician. She developed a deep passion for music at the age of 11 when she first began playing guitar and wrote her first songs shortly after her first lesson.  From then to now, she has written over hundreds of songs of her own. Her first performance playing original music was for an audience of about 145 people and she has continued to perform in venues such as the Triad Theatre in New York City for a full house, 53 Below, The Stamford Diner, The Beach House, The Hilton in Nashville, other local restaurants, and anywhere that will let her sing.  While Chrissy has many hobbies, she finds that she is happiest songwriting, playing her guitar and piano, and performing. Multiple self-written songs earned her the accolades of 'One To Watch' by the Nashville Songwriters Association International, and "Play With Matches" earned her a recommendation for consideration of the organization's exclusive publisher's luncheon. In addition to writing songs, she is a multi award winning poet and dedicates much time to writing of many kinds. She now writes songs each day after school on both guitar and piano.
