This month’s Band of the month is upcoming soul sensation KIRBY. The self-proclaimed granddaughter of soul doesn’t call herself a singer or a songwriter, but a song therapist. “I sing and I write to help people heal. One note at a time.”
As per, special thanks to our Nakisha Kiely for this gorgeous illustration and our first of 2023!
KIRBY has been on our radar for a while now and it looks as though 2023 may just be her year. Having just released her stunning new EP ‘I Told You I Would’, we’re excited to hear what the soulful singer gets up to next. Oozing with blues-infused brilliance, KIRBY combines retro-tinged soundscapes will modern elements of neo-soul in order to create a sound that is truly special. And that voice, jeeeeeez. Let’s hope she gets her arse over to the UK ASAP.
All of the music taken from ‘I Told You I Would’ finds KIRBY singing over acoustic, stripped-down production. If you’ve followed KIRBY from then to now, you’d realise these were songs she shared online years ago.
