Maybe you don't know the name Christina Perri, but you certainly think people can dance to her music. That's because this Philadelphian singer/songwriter's breathtaking song "Jar Of Hearts" (watch the video below) was featured on the dance competition show "So You Think You Can Dance," catapulting Perri to overnight success.
This should be no problem, as Christina Perri certainly has the songwriting skills and the vocal chops to warrant some major spotlight time and keep her there. With an intoxicating mix of Tori Amos' atmospherics and a true rocker's edge (think Pat Benatar, Chrissie Hynde or early Stevie Nicks), Christina Perri has won over fans with her unique storyteller's sensibility.
