Christian Quesenberry | Beats, Brews & Buddies | S2 EP7
Now 26, Christian was raised in the small town of Huddleston, Va and grew up spending his time around Smith Mountain Lake. Growing up, his life wasn’t always easy. With an alcoholic father, and an enabling mother of that drinking problem it was tough, but music found him at a young age. Picking up the guitar at the age of 11, then later getting professional vocal coaching from while participating in Staunton River High School Choir.
After high school, though, Christian began down a slippery slope of alcohol addiction himself, losing his passions for music. He would find himself homeless, jumping job to job trying to figure out where he fit in. Until he met his now wife and her family. The musical talents of this family pulled him back into his music, and now, being almost 4 years sober, Christian has created for himself a full-blown music career. After playing his first solo show in March 2021, Christian hit the ground running playing any bar, restaurant, or venue he could. After landing an American Idol Callback Audition in early 2022, his career truly took off. He quickly formed his band, “Christian Q. & The Groove with meme era, Amy Quesenberry (bass), David Owens (lead guitar) and John Graham (drums). Now playing 3-5 shows a week, along with recording his debut album, “Coastlines to Mountaintops”. His goal is to start traveling more and spread his wings to new venues across state boarders!
Now a husband, & father to a beautiful two-year-old boy who loves music just as much as his daddy does, Christian just wants to create the best life possible for his wife and son by doing what he loves most; and that’s playing music.
