Kinnie Starr

Hailing originally from Calgary, Alberta, the multi-talented, Juno nominated Kinnie Starr pushes artistic boundaries by ignoring them. Her signature speak-sing rhythm and smooth, seductive voice have been compared to other artists, but Kinnie has an original sound that's impossible to categorize. This mixed-blood Mohawk uses her degree in women's studies, her love of hip hop and street art, and her untrained intuitive talent as a pulse in all her music. An independent spirit, Kinnie has worked internationally with major labels as well as smaller labels to continue making albums she is proud of. Set to release her fifth album through Last Gang Labels (Metric, Death Cab For Cutie) in spring 2010, Kinnie Starr has yet to hit her full stride as an artist and continues to break her own limits.
