Presentation:
Kriz Rogers was born Kristina Elisabeth Lindberg
in the small village of Stocka on the east coast
of Sweden.
Her parents loved music, especially Swedish folk
music and country music. Even as a small child,
the Christmas and Birthday presents they gave
her were toy instruments, and when she was 10
years old, she was given a real piano accordion
and took lessons at the public community music
school.
After three terms, her music teacher was replaced
by a woman that recognized what Kriz really wanted
to play and that was guitar so she encouraged
Kriz to follow suit which she willingly did.
Kriz had been singing in Sunday school since
age six and at age ten to country songs on the
cassettes her daddy gave her.
It came natural for her to start singing while
playing guitar. At age thirteen she made her first
public appearance in Stocka in the school show
celebrating the beginning of summer holidays.
At the end of the summer she had written her first
country song and now has the satisfaction of completing
over 250 songs.
The country music her father listened to has
always been an inspiration and influence in Kriz's
music with artists such as Johnny Horton, Hank
williams, Sr., Buck Owens, Charlie Pride, Tom
T. Hall, Patsy Cline, Merle Haggard, Tammy Wynette,
Bonnie Owens and the list goes on and on.
Kriztina Rogers has released two albums with
her original songs in the name Kriztina
Åhs & Countryfied. The albums
are called “Kriztinacountry” and “Roads”.
Both have been very well received and given great
reviews in Sweden, and the songs have been played
on radio stations all over the world. The song
“Singing My Blues Away” reached number
one on Folkradions listener's chart.
Kriz has performed at major country music festivals
in Sweden like Duved, Lingbo and Vemdalen. In
September 2008 she was one of three contestants
in The Swedish Mastership of Country Music called
"CountrySM".
She has appeared in two television shows, one
on Sweden’s national TV called “Stjärnskott”
and one in the states on Nashville Broadcasting
Network called “Special Presentation”.
Kriz recently married ICMA Traditional Male Country
Vocalist of the year 2008, Chase Rogers of Chattanooga,
Tennessee. Both as CMA/BMI singers, songwriters
and recording artist plan to tour as a duet in
Europe and the states.
They have already written several songs which
they plan to record in the very near future. They
plan to continue their dreams and soon to combine
their solo careers into one act as "Chase
N' Kriztina".
Chase was recently quoted as saying, "I
chased this little Swedish angel for a very short
time, however, the Chase will always be there
as this is the very love of my life. What more
could a man want? Kriz is a very beautifully talented
woman with an absolute heart of gold and a kindred
spirit like none other that I have met.
This is a God-Sent match, therefore, you have
'Chase N' Kriztina'." As a further note,
Kriz fluently speaks and writes perfectly grammatical
English! You can expect alot of things from this
Swedish Angel as she has so much to offer to the
music world. She and Chase will be "Chase
N' Kriztina".
