EPISODE 140: Christine Ohlman is the long-time vocalist with the Saturday Night Live Band on NBC whose towering hair earned her the nickname “The Beehive Queen.” She is one of the queens of American Rock n’ Soul, deeply embedded in the scenes in Muscle Shoals, Alabama and New Orleans Louisiana as well as—of course—NYC.  She leads Christine Ohlman & Rebel Montez, with whom she has released six CDs. (The latest, “The Deep End,” appeared on several year-end national Top Ten lists).  She has recently collaborated with Dion on his chart-topping CD of duets, “Girl Friends” as well as appearing on recent tributes to Wilson Pickett and Matt “Guitar” Murphy.  She is a musicologist of note, and her radio show/Apple Podcast “Soul Hive” is now in its second year. christineohlman.net
