Most recently she was awarded another Bell Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album of the Year, and the National Jazz Award for Jazz Voice at the Wangaratta Jazz Festival 2012.
She has released six albums in Australia, and was hand picked by Jon Gordon for his album Evolution, for American Label ArtistShare in 2009.
While Kristin is in high demand as a performer, she is also a much respected vocal teacher, with former positions at Australian National Universityand Central Queensland Conservatorium of Music. 2013 will see her take a part time position at the Brisbane Conservatorium.
The Kristin Berardi Band features Greg Coffin (piano) Carl Morgan (guitar) Brett Hirst (bass) and Tim Firth (drums) and this group has just recorded their second album.
They will be playing a mix of Berardi's originals and some of their favourite jazz standards.
