20 October 2011The Kimbra train is picking up steam – all aboard!
Like all the best things from NZ, we’ve claimed Kimbra as our own. We lured her across the pond with the suave production skills of Aussie hip hop head M-Phazes, who slapped some ANZAC-spirit charm on ‘Settle Down’ (which just took out 1st place in this year’s International Songwriting Competition in the Pop category). We love winners, don’t we? Just as much as we love her handclaps and horns. If her razor-sharp voice sounds hauntingly familiar, hunt no further than Miami Horror’s 'I Look To You' – smacked you with a strong left hook, didn’t it?
Kimbra is simply itching to show us her smoky-soul skills to pay the bills and blow all those comparisons to Amy Winehouse and Florence Welch outta the water. Plus, she’s the ultimate nerd pinup = HOT!
We’ll be her 'Cameo Lover', won’t we?
