It’s impossible to resist the sultry sound of Caitlin Krisko, the singer/songwriter from New York City whose hypnotic voice and mellow folk rhythms cast an enchanting spell over mind, body and soul.
Originally from a suburb outside Detroit, MI, Caitlin found her musical calling at 13, when her mother packed up their belongings and moved the two to NYC. It was here, in what Caitlin calls her home and creative sanctuary, that the singer/songwriter attended the Professional Performing Arts School. After graduating in 2003, Caitlin continued her studies at Circle in the Square, a prestigious arts conservatory that, according to her, “completely rewired my brain in the way I perceive and receive life in its entirety.”
Caitlin recorded her EP, The Unintelligible Truth, in 2006 at Galuminum Foil Productions in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. She has performed at NYC’s The Bitter End and headlined at The International Music Festival in Belize. She has performed throughout NYC at venues including Highline Ballroom, Rockwood Music Hall, The Living Room, Pianos, and Mercury Lounge. The artist also scored two national ad campaigns for Eucerin Lotion and CapriSun.
In 2008, Caitlin made the transition from a one woman show into a full six piece band, forming "The Broadcast", authentically bringing to life the fusion of soul, folk, and rock she had been searching for. The band was chosen as one of Cosmopolitan Magazine's Top 10 Finalists in the Star Launch Competition and because of this received over 135,000 hits on youtube, including a feature on the sites "poptub" program.
Returning to Galuminum Foil in September the band has since finished recording their debut full length album "Over the Undercover" and performed to a nearly sold out venue at Mercury Lounge on May 30, 2009.
When asked what sets her music apart, Caitlin replied, “I believe in the movement behind music and its ability to communicate experiences in a way that allows others to not only relate but also feel inspired by new thoughts and ideas. Universal unity is an unrealistic goal, but I do believe we can do a whole lot better than this by affecting the world around us. In my life, music plays a key part in this movement.”
