Corey Christiansen: Factory Girl

Read "Factory Girl" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


Guitarist Corey Christiansen began his stint at Origin Records in 2008 with a top notch organ jazz outing, Roll With It.

Chamber 3: Grassroots

Read "Grassroots" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan

Corey Christiansen: Lone Prairie

Read "Lone Prairie" reviewed by C. Michael Bailey


Guitarist Corey Christiansen has released two previous recordings on the Origin label in Roll With It (2008) and Outlaw Tractor (2010). Both were well received and featured Christiansen's ethereal playing, characterized by a deep reverb beneath a slightly overdriven tone. These recordings are uniformly fine, but generally lacked a thematic center (not that one was required). ...
