Kitsunegari

About Me



Kitsunegari is an acoustic pop/folk artist with almost a decade of experience as a solo performer. She has captured the imaginations and hearts of all who listen; her silken voice and catchy melodies entrance the listener from the first note to the last. Kitsunegari's lyrics paint portraits of her experiences and her interests.

With the help of Matthew Hoffman and Lempicka Records , Kitsunegari finally entered the studio and recorded her debut EP “bootpolish&babies”, an ecclectic mix of original songs that illustrates her songwriting and lyrical inventiveness.
Promotion of the ep has seen her play venues all over Brisbane, including: The Globe Theatre, The Step Inn, Kitty O'Sheas, QUT Guild Bar, UQ Red Room and The Royal George Hotel (where she is frequently seen performing at their open mic night).
Kitsunegari has played along with the likes of Lilly's Ether , Sue Ray , Wipedout , Shelby Lim and the Butcher Birds .
2008 saw Kitsunegari do a live to air spot on brisbane's premier community radio station 4ZZZfm , and she was picked up by internet radio announcer Nana Mex who gave her airplay on (the now defunct) Downunda Thunda Radio (DTR). The Queensland division of DTR featured Kitsunegari as one of their “featured airplay artists”. Expect to hear more of Kitsunegari's music on the airwaves as Nana Mex and the team at Global Thunda Network (GTN) begin broadcasting in late January/early February of 2009.
Big things are a-foot in 2009 at “Kamp Kits”, so stay tuned!

WHY CAN’T PEOPLE PLAY FAIR?

competition is healthy. competition is good - sometimes. underhandedness, on the other hand, is crass. moving in on someone else's territory and reorganising it without telling the original organiser,...
