Christina Perri is known for her soaring bittersweet vocals and raw emotional songwriting. The Philadelphia native, named as iTunes’ “Breakthrough Pop Artist of 2011,” gave a breathtaking performance that included the broadcast debut of past music, as well as new music from her highly anticipated forthcoming album, Head or Heart, due out April 1. Perri performed hits including the RIAA four-times platinum single “A Thousand Years” from the Twilight Saga’s Breaking Dawn and the three times platinum smash, “Jar of Hearts.” “My PBS Front and Center show turned out to be one of my favorites. I was absolutely terrified and excited all at the same time. The show was so intimate and I loved sharing all my stories and playing all my new songs with my new band for my very first experience with album two.” – Christina Perri
