Christo Carlsen - Guitarist / Vocalist / Songwriter / Composer
A veteran of the Canberra music scene, Christo played his first gig in the
legendary summer of ’69 at the St Phillip’s Church Hall in O’Connor, ACT.
Influenced early on by the ‘60s guitar heroes, as well as by the more dulcet
sounds of latin, jazz, country and folk, Christo believes the essence of good
guitar lies in the ability to project emotion through the music - to make the
instrument ‘talk’.
Christo provides sympathetic and innovative accompaniment to DJ’s performance.
His intricate percussive guitar moves, developed through years of busking, often leave entranced audiences in awe! Also a fine vocalist, Christo and DJ create powerful and playful vocal harmonies.
Christo also fronts good-time rock-a-bluesy band Mojo Filter (formerly named 'Soylent Green') playing electric guitar and singing.
