Christine Collister grew up on the Isle of Man, and her professional recording career began after she moved to the UK in the mid 1980’s, when she came to national attention singing the theme for the BBC Television series The Life and Loves Of A She Devil. A period of great critical and commercial success when working with Clive Gregson was followed by a fruitful and enduring association with Richard Thompson.
Christine’s career now spans an incredible 40 years. Over that bridge of time she has released 24 albums, a DVD celebrating 20 years in the business and an acclaimed single with the BBC.Released in 2024 – Children Of The Sea is a very special project of 9
original songs inspired by Manx Folklore and a magical sense of place.The CD is accompanied by a beautiful book complete with lyrics, inspirations and stories with original illustrations by Manx artists.
“I was born of this place, the tiny Celtic nation of the Isle of Man. The land itself sings to and through me. I have tried to capture some of the essence of its ancient magic within these pages and accompanying songs. I hope the Children of The Sea settle into your soul and find a warm welcome there.”

Throughout, she has mesmerized and astounded with her unique blend of soul, blues, pop, jazz, country and folk, and today she remains as powerful, subtle, effortless and relevant as ever.
