Band/artist history
It's just me. *Smiles*

I've played covers at Potbelly Sandwich Works in the Midwest, and a few originals. Currently I'm working on two albums entitled "Drawing Nearer" and "Gipfeln".
Your musical influences
Pre-teen: started out with John Williams, classical composer of Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogies. Teen: Sarah McLachlan Young Adult: Tori Amos Adult: Dido, John Mayer, Ryan Montbleau
What equipment do you use?
I use: 76 key Casio WK1800, a line-in cable, and a mic. Computer programs: Nero, ACID 1.0, Sibelius 2.0
Anything else?
I love giving as much as receiving feedback, so don't hesitate to contact me. I may have just the tip or extra push of confidence you need. :) As a young (23) female singer/songwriter, most of my songs focus on love, the attainment of independence and freedom, and focusing on life and goals and the meaning of success. My musical style varies widely to support the style and context of the song. Initially that upset me, but I've come to embrace my diversified ear. For example, listen to "Pilot Light" and then "Bite My Tongue".

Howdy! We have a new song "Kentucky" on the charts, you might like it! Thanks..
Hi Kimberley Most impressed by your voice and your variety. Will come back for more.
Hey there, Finally had a chacne to listen to the new song, beautiful, I love your piano melodies, piano is such an underrated instrument. I guess it's one of my favorites now that I think of it. And you convey such emotion in your songs it's always a pleasure to listen. I have an old song I just posted on my page called Simple Song of Happiness. Have a listen when you have a chance. there will be more coming soon, it's so nice to be back online after so long away It's nice getting back to this community again! Take care, Amy
Hi Kimberley sorry it's taken me so long to listen to save you - it's such a lovely song with a very poignant story and I think that's almost as important as the song itself - that you felt compelled enough to share your thoughts in a way that is so universal. Love and light Kate x
Hi Kimberley Save You is masterly crafted and sung with great expertise. The piano flows from begining to end. A very emotion and powerful song. I love it. I can't remember if I asked if you would like to have your music on Sound Aid. You would be most welcomed. The site is www.SoundAid.org. Its come quiet a way since its launch in March. Best regards Mike
