There are albums that, when you first hear them, you want to call up your best friends and play them your favorite parts - and at the same time you want to keep the songs all to yourself. "Coming Home At Last" is one of these. Some artists have the ability to evoke memories of the great and small moments of one's own life in a song. Christina Lux writes and sings these kinds of songs. When people hear them they find their own world also opening as well. An acclaimed back-up singer for many stars, her masterfully composed songs are sung with a pure voice that intermingles the warmth of Norah Jones with the depth of Tori Amos; the result is soulful, authentic and engaging. Lux's songs never try to be larger than life - that makes them so familiar and at the same time so unique.

What people are saying about Coming Home At Last:
"One word sums up the songwriting of Christina Lux - stimulating. Coming Home At Last captivates you with its warmth and its therapeutic, cathartic nature. The arrangements are guitar-driven with a pop music type of gloss and influences that range from jazz to blues to folk."
- Music Design InReview
"...A great voice. Her soft ballads sung with a sensual dark voice are classically embedded in grooving, tasteful arrangements. Lots of power in her voice, lyrics which say a great deal. Christina definitely has got her own style."
- Feedback Magazine
"Masterfully composed ballads somewhere between Ricky Lee Jones and Shawn Colvin...Sensual music to dive into."
- Soundcheck
"What separates this musician from others is a beautiful, really penetrating voice that she uses with much spontaneity and a feeling for improvisation."
- Guitar + Bass
"From the first note played to the last on this folk-pop fusion record, you are inside the heart and world of Christina Lux. With a touch of soulful jazz, Christina's voice takes you on a musical journey of hurt, pain, healing, and hope."
- Guitar + Bass
"There is beauty in her voice and courage in her songs as she takes you to those bittersweet places in your own heart and soul. In a world where our wounds hide in the shadows, this artist brings them out into the light for healing and peace and, in so doing, gives us the opportunity to do the same. I highly recommend Coming Home at Last. Your heart is calling."
- Cherie Lassiter, Innerchange Magazine
"You will fall in love with Christina Lux’s songs, which feel intimate like Norah Jones and intelligent and sexy like Tori Amos or Cheryl Wheeler. This is good stuff. Hard to categorize—is it folk … pop … blues? Yes, it’s all of them, and it’s really well done. Coming Home at Last is an enhanced disc that also offers two music videos."
- Anne Williams of Play List
