Christle was born in a small town in Ohio with music
in her veins and began singing in the public at the age of 12. She
started in her local church, surrounding churches, and soon became a
member of her school choir. Soon after entering high school, Christle
caught the eye of many when she perfomed in "Oklahoma" at the age of
15.
Many other stage performances followed and her love for music
increased. Shortly after picking up the guitar Christle began to write
her own songs that reflected her feelings on life and lessons
learned. Her songs come from real pain and joy that she has
encountered along the way. In December of 2004 Christle lost her first
love and best friend. That drove her to write "You're Not Here". She
said "If someone can turn on the radio and hear one of my songs, and it
helps them to know that someone else knows what they are going through,
that's what it is all about" in a 2005 interview with the BG
News. In November of 2005 Christle got much recognition for
winning the title of Buckeye Country Star. She recalls " I had
never performed my songs to anyone live and it felt like I
was pouring out my heart to hundreds of people I didn't know, but
everyone loved it. I had no idea this would be this big!" Soon after
winning Christle and Driver recorded her single "You're Not Here" along
with two other songs written by her father. "You're Not Here"
and "My Old Man" where played on 103.7 Buckeye Country WCKY after an
interview with Big D and Bubba, and the response has been more than she
could have imagined. Then in May,2006 " Custom Blend" joined Christle in persuit of that dream called"Nashville".
