Christina Giacona is a music producer, composer, and multimedia artist behind the Oklahoma City–based production house Onyx Lane. Known for her immersive soundscapes and interdisciplinary collaborations, Christina’s work bridges classical, experimental, and cinematic music. At Onyx Lane, she collaborates with longtime creative partner Patrick Conlon to produce original works that defy easy categorization—merging classical instrumentation with electronic textures, cinematic storytelling, and deeply personal themes.

Christina regularly works with the Oklahoma City Philharmonic and conductor Alexander Mickelthwate, serving as producer on their most recent release VEILS OF JUSTICE featuring the compositions of Hannibal Lokumbe and performers Karen Slack, Brannen Temple, Marilyn Luper, Jabee Williams, Igor Lipinski, the Canterbury Voices, and Ambassadors’ Concert Choir.

Geib’s jazz instrumental album DON’T PANIC featuring Trevor Galvin, Joe Doubleday, and Bill Repavich.

Sherman’s Invocation, in which she sets her fervent plea: “Make peace on all your lands” in  15 world languages; and, as a tribute to Allison’s mother whose vision of unity inspired the album, Dvořák’s Songs My Mother Taught Me, recorded in Prague, the composer’s birthplace.
