Christina Crofts has built a reputation in the Australian blues scene for her fiery slide guitar work and raw songwriting, which tips the hat off to classic blues and Americana sounds, while bringing a fresh new take to the genre. Over the years she has released multiple records that reached the upper tiers of the Australian Blues & Roots Charts, while also finding success on community radio. With Best of Bottleneck, Crofts brings together some of the most notable highlights from her career, remastered to emphasize the instinct of their performances. Some of the highlights include the opener, Voodoo Queen, which is a prime example of how Christina seamlessly merges various era of rock guitars into one unique and personable formula. The natural, organic sounds of the songs highlight the artist's skills and ability to use the guitar in a very vocal way, meaning that there's a lot of room for expressive playing on Christina's songs, rather than just focusing on technical chops for the sake of it.
