Christine Glass

Christine Glass Byrd is an American singer-songwriter and background vocalist. Between 1997 and 2003, she released three Christian music albums— two as a solo artist and one in the duo GlassByrd with her husband Marc Byrd. Known for her "ethereal" voice, Glass has contributed background vocals to many projects including Common Children, The Choir, and Hammock. In 2022, she released the album All Around My Head under the stage name Lumenette.

Career Originally from Louisiana, Glass trained to be an opera singer at Louisiana Tech University. After finishing her degree, she moved to Nashville, Tennessee, and worked at Word Records as a receptionist and an art director.

With Marc Byrd, she recorded a worship music album called Open Wide this Window, under the name GlassByrd in 2003. "Weight of the World" charted on the Billboard Christian music charts in 2003. They were later dropped from their record label, Word Records.

Glass has contributed vocals to numerous projects, and her voice has been called "ethereal", "angelic", “haunting”, and “ghost-like”. In 2011, she sang on a Hammock cover of Catherine Wheel's “Black Metallic”.

In 2022, Glass released the album All Around My Head under the stage name, Lumenette. The album, released on Hammock Music, departs from the overtly Christian themes of Glass’s earlier albums, instead focusing on themes of depression and love. In more recent years, she has been using the name Christine Byrd professionally.
