Christina Rosenvinge Hepworth (born 29 May 1964) is a Spanish singer.
A veteran of the music industry with a career spanning more than thirty years,[1] she was a member of the Spanish groups Alex y Christina and Christina y Los Subterráneos before she started a solo career. Rosenvinge has spoken about facing sexism in the industry[2] and is a vocal critic of it. Lee Ranaldo, the guitarist for Sonic Youth, produced one of her albums before she moved to New York City in 1999. She recorded three albums in English released by Smells Like Records before moving back to Spain. She was considered one of Spain's leading musicians in the 2000s decade.[3] In 2018, she was honoured with the Premio Nacional de las Musicas Actuales.[4]
Rosenvinge tours regularly in Spain, Mexico, and South America.[5] It was in a trip to Huacho, Peru, that she wrote her song "La Tejedora".[6]
