KIMBRA
New Zealand-born pop star Kimbra is a musical force innovating the shape of pop today as a songwriter, musician, producer, and adventurous performer. Kimbra’s 2011 debut, Vows, bowed at No. 14 on the Billboard Top 200 and was certified platinum in Australia and New Zealand.

Kimbra exploded into the public consciousness that same year with “Somebody That I Used To Know,” a duet with Gotye that earned her two Grammy Awards for “Record of the Year” and “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance.” The song topped Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in 2012 and was the best-selling song of that year in the U.S. It has sold more than 13 million copies. In 2014 she released the highly acclaimed album, The Golden Echo, recruiting artists as diverse as Thundercat, Omar-Rodriguez Lopez of The Mars Volta, Bilal, and John Legend to highlight her eclectic musical style.

Since her sophomore release, she has moved to New York, continuing to innovate her sound, performing with The Roots and David Byrne at the 2016 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony in tribute to David Bowie and also appearing at the Prince tribute at First Avenue in Minneapolis performing with his band, The Revolution, in September. Alongside releasing a stand-alone single called “Sweet Relief" with producer Redinho, she released her third LP titled Primal Heart last year, which she co-produced with Grammy Award-winning producer John Congleton (St Vincent, Goldfrapp) before embarking on a worldwide tour performing with acts as diverse as Beck, Odessa, and David Byrne. As if that wasn't enough to keep her busy, during this time Kimbra also released an additional version of the first single from Primal Heart featuring rapper Snoop Dogg, a new take and video for the standout track “Version of Me” featuring DAWN, and an EP entitled Songs From Primal Heart, Reimagined. The EP featured acoustic versions of four songs from her acclaimed full length released earlier that year.

2019 brought more touring for Kimbra including performances of intimate, unplugged versions of her songs to accompany the release of the Reimaged EP. Kimbra is now working on her fourth album and preparing to star on New Zealand's popular TV series "Pop Stars" as a mentor to some of today's aspiring song writers, further solidifying Kimbra as one of today's most unpredictable and genre-defying mavericks in music.

KENDRA McKINLEY

Kendra McKinley paints on her clothes and makes music for smoking weed with your bra off.

She’s a conduit of connection with a voice that sounds like tuned honey, creating music that braids sensuality, levity and polish. Whether she’s casting spells with her looping pedal or fronting a dynamic band, her live show is an invitation to swerve and swoon to her yummy grooves.

Born in Santa Cruz, California, into a family of artists, McKinley has been immersed in a spectrum of performance mediums from a young age. Theater, dance, choir, visual art, fashion, and music have shaped this intuitive performer, laying the foundation for a dynamic and multifaceted career in the arts.

McKinley’s recorded catalog showcases the vivid depth and range of her artistry. Her most recent LP, WHERE DOES A BODY BEGIN?, blends lush, feminine, and seasoned sensibilities reminiscent of Joni Mitchell’s Court and Spark, infused with the undeniable groove of D’Angelo’s Black Messiah.

Her upcoming EP, music for smoking weed with your bra off, is a floral, funky, cozy, and cool collection of songs entirely performed and produced by McKinley. Its first two singles, you think you’d notice and never say never, offer a taste of the EP’s velvety vibe.

One of the most romantic additions to McKinley’s discography is The Henry Miller Memorial Library Sessions, written and recorded during a dreamy five-week residency at Big Sur’s iconic bookstore, music venue, and commemorative space dedicated to the late author.

Beyond her solo work, McKinley was the music director, bandleader, and performer in Ragnar Kjartansson’s piece Romantic Songs of the Patriarchy, presented at the Guggenheim Museum in New York (2021) and The Women’s Building in San Francisco (2018).

Now based in New York’s Hudson Valley, McKinley has found a vibrant community of fellow artists, where she continues to create and collaborate.
