Bio
Meet Elaina Christina -
Poetic and melodic Americana songwriting reminiscent of Zach Bryan and Noah Kahan
Soulful and powerful vocals in the style of Lauren Daigle and Madeline Edwards
…a Nashville-based Country / Americana singer-songwriter who blends powerful & soulful vocals with poetic songs about love and loss.
With eclectic early influences spanning Contemporary Christian, Blues and Pop Folk music, she has grown to love the honesty and poetic creativity of Americana / Country.
Her vocal talents led to American Idol, BB Kings, The Hard Rock Cafe, and Cannery Hall. In 2024 she earned "Best of Seminar” songwriting recognition from the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI).
After an early interest in competitive diving was cut short by injury, she redirected her passions to music and hasn’t looked back.
Elaina has family roots in both Australia and the US. She settled in Nashville in 2022 after growing up in Ohio, Nebraska, and Oregon.

“You have a solid melodic sense about you. Love your note choices in your chorus and the way that you move around a melody line. You have a really fresh lyric here.”
