UK's Soul Brother Records review: KIM ARRINGTON FIRST LOVE NOTE OF KIM ARRINGTON Very good lyrically strong independent soul album featuring real instruments in a Jill Scott/Kendra Ross style, from North Carolina’s singer songwriter Kim, who possesses a really strong unique voice. The mid tempo grooves ’Love From Your Clothesline’, ’All Said And Done’ ’Washburn’ and ’Hurry On Silly Boy’ are really strong featuring some great keyboard textures. The lilting ’Heat From Another’ and ’Bargaining’ and melancholy ’Front Door’ and ’Wake Up’ are also good. ’Sight Unseen’ has a fuller sound and the more up-tempo percussive ’White Dress’ will get your feet moving. Really nice album.
Kim Arrington--Vocals
JC Martin--Guitar

Kim Arrington sang publicly, before she started kindergarten. By second grade, she was writing her own songs. Kim has performed for tens of thousands all over the United States and Europe. Reared by a classically-trained soprano mother, Kim was exposed to music from Leontyne Price to Doug E. Fresh to Liberace. In May 2008, Kim opens her love letters to you with the release of her debut CD, “First Love Note of Kim Arrington.”

"DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell." Bill Margold, Cinema Seen, L.A. X..Press
