About Me

Singer-songwriter Brittany Kraus is an independent artist hailing from the Saskatchewan prairies. Armed with an expressive voice and a distinct style of piano-playing, Brittany combines her pop influences with folk, rock and a hint of cabaret to weave whimsical tales of love, lust, and sorrow. She writes without inhibition: her music is compelling and provocative; playful and disarming; sincere and unconventional.
In December of 2008, Brittany self-released the EP Little Songs, a collection of eight original tracks constructed to tell the stories of eight girls desperately searching for the things that make them whole. Recorded in various basements and bedrooms across the prairies, Little Songs is a raw, moody album that beckons the listener to accompany its troubled characters through intimate moments of revelation, regret and redemption.
Though she has drawn comparisons to songstresses Regina Spektor, Tori Amos and Kate Bush, Brittany Kraus' sound remains undeniably unique, and her voice - unmistakable. Traipsing between light, lilting pop melodies and dissonant, melodramatic accounts of danger and broken-heartedness, the enigmatic Brittany Kraus is an adventurous new artist that demands attention...
