BIOGRAPHY


“There is something primal and infectious about soul delivered this way.” Nick O’Byrne, AIR Independent Reviews

Tore My Heart Out is the first single from Mama Kin’s upcoming debut album release BEAT AND HOLLER. Recorded with Producer Tony Buchen (Andy Bull, Gin Wigmore, Tim Finn, Blue King Brown) this track has struck a chord with the folk at ITUNES, having been named SINGLE OF THE WEEK of November 3rd.

“Tore My Heart Out tapped into a whole new era of what my songwriting was calling me to express. It was the dawn of a new freedom for me. It’s a really personal and vulnerable song, but at the same time there’s an energy in it’s telling that was invigorating to explore.” Mama Kin

This track promises to be the horn blower of an exciting album release early in 2010, with an impressive line up of festivals jumping on board to showcase MAMA KIN across the country.

“Mama Kin has tapped into something extraordinary, a delicate balance of the raw and the refined… roots music topped with a sophisticated feminine ingenuity.” Bill Hauritz, Festival Director, Woodford Folk Festival

“..great songs and a great voice that make you feel so damn good.” Carlo Santone, Blue King Brown

“… captivating, entertaining and extremely talented.” Stephen Lowe, Culture Magazine, Luxembourg

“Mama Kin has a voice that soothes and soars, she got bittersweet melody and groove in her soul." Vikki Thorn, The Waifs.

“...this years ‘next big thing’ at the Woodford Folk Festival. My festival highlight.” Sarah Howells, Roots N All, Triple J

“….melancholic soul. A classy woman with a great voice.” Eva Louis, Review Archive, Munich, Germany

“Mama Kin captivated us, entranced us and made us fall in love.” Jo Duffy Artistic Director, Darwin Festival

“Mama Kin aims straight for the heart with her roots fuelled music. A smoky voice made for soul, she’ll transport you straight to an underground New Orleans bar, cigar and glass of red in hand.” Hit Pick The Music Network October 2009
