At 10:30 Christena Graves shares details about her album, FINDING MY FOOTING. Christena grew up in western Michigan, and after leaving to attend college in Missouri, she met her husband Brandon and joined the band Waterdeep as the keyboard player. After touring for several years, she stepped away from the band to raise their children. Once the kids were old enough, Christena and Brandon decided to form a new project. FINDING MY FOOTING is Christena’s first full length solo album since 1996 and her first as a band leader. “This project ended up being much more than just making a good record. It has been difficult to go through, but I am learning so much about myself. I am happy with where I am and I am proud of what I’ve said with this album.” More info at: www.christenagravesmusic.com
