 Eclectic pop rock artist Krista D is a feisty, unique and creative singer/songwriter. The latest album from her is Jane's World. The 24 year old, Krista D began producing the Jane's World sessions at Pumpkn Patch Studios in Riverview, NB. She enlisted help from local guitar hero Chris Colepaugh who did most of the guitars on the album and all the bass. Colepaugh even offered help with song structuring and creative direction, most notably on "Penny for your Thoughts."
Jane's World includes some fun light hearted love songs like You and Me and Extraordinary,(the first nationally released single) along with more serious songs like Black Eyed Susan and Nursery Crimes about domestic and child abuse." The subject matter may seem dark, but the songs are usually presented in such a way that I'm hoping people can find the situations relatable." says Krista. "Most importantly I want people to remember that they are not alone." Krista's image could be described as 50's housewife with an 80's punk twist; "I enjoy the ability to change looks with my mood and situation," says Krista about her style.
Krista Acheson's stage name Krista D comes from both the fact that her maiden name was Doucet and its her homage to the late actress Sandra Dee. Growing up listening to golden oldies radio and then exploring music on her own, Krista's influences run from The Beatles and The Mamas and the Papas to Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Rancid, Pixies and Fiona Apple.
