* Kimbra in Zurich *
Kimbra Lee Johnson, better known as Kimbra, is a New Zealand singer-songwriter/guitarist. I saw Kimbra for the first time at Coachella in April this year when she came out at Gotye's gig and sang *Somebody That I Used To Know*, song that not only brought her and him mainstream success but Grammy Nomination as well. At the end of the summer of 2012, I saw Kimbra again, this time at Rock En Seine and without Gotye. She was exceptional. Kimbra does something very magical on the stage. Even though she only released one album, her debut album Vows, she improvises and performs the version of the songs very different from what you can hear on it. Charming, with amazing voice, working the stage with lots of energy it's hard not to follow her every move and fall in love with her. I, and I believe the rest of the audience, was mesmerized with her. However, my favorite performance was two weeks after, when I saw her again performing live here in Zürich. On 11th of September, few hours before her concert at Kaufleuten, and before Kimbra put her fabulous outfit on, I sat together with her and talked about her music, how she became an artist that she is today and her plans for future. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tune in tonight to Gimme A Beat (17.12.2012) to hear an interview and listen to the music from Kimbra's album Vows as well as her choice of songs sang by female artists that inspire her.
