Add to My Profile | More VideosKayleigh Smith is a 21-year-old singer songwriter, instrumentalist and musician. A well-known contributor to the local music scene, and no stranger to the open stage, she has performed her works on guitar and piano since the age of 15. She has been influenced greatly by independent female artists including the likes of Regina Spektor, Chantal Kreviazuk, Norah Jones and Ani Defranco. Kayleigh personifies tenderness of the heart, touching on the young persons perplexing transition from juvenility. Learning piano from age 5, she began to compose in her preteen years. Her first experiences of singing and playing were in church and she continues to do so. She has played in various venues across the city including Lydia’s, Buds, Amigos, McNally Robinson and Mystic Java. Listeners have hailed her solo performance as a captivating and nearly haunting presentation, while her amplified routine including various recognizable musicians is said to eject an addicting energy that one cannot escape. She has participated in various summer festivals including the main stage at Taste of Saskatchewan in ‘07, the Saskatoon Fringe in ‘05 and ‘06 and competed in the Saskatchewan youth Talent Search in ‘04 and ‘05 in which she made to the finals. Kayleigh has shared the stage with various key performers including Matt Anderson, Kim Fontaine, Sexually Attracted to Fire and Paul Kuzbik. Her most current influence is Saskatoon’s Josh Palmer who is currently producing her album.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 9/23/2005
Band Members: keys - kayleigh smith ~ vocals - kayleigh smith ~ ~ ~
Influences: I have always admired independant female writers. I grew up with Alison Krauss, Alanis Morisette and Chantel Kreviazuk. I identify on a large scale with the likes of Regina Spektor, Teagan and Sarah, The Yeah Yeah Yeah's, and Norah Jones. I spend time in the company of remnants of Ella Fitzgerald and Billy Holiday. However, the greatest influence on my music is definately my very life expirience. My hurts, my pains, my joys. These moments shared with those passing through and those toughing it out for the long run. I believe everything has a purpose, every road a destination but not nessesarily an end. I believe in love, goodness, and especially God. This is my story. It is who i am, there is really no other need for conversation.
