Kristin sings of the curiosities of a wild and yearning world. Mixing abstract imagery with raw honesty, she aims to get to the heart of the human condition.
She plays a Fender ‘69 Thinline and a nylon guitar. And is very found of her stepbrother’s upright piano.
She has almost completed her debut album with long time band members Becca Mears (Eyes and No Eyes, The Mariner’s Children, Peggy Sue) and Thomas Heather (Eyes and No Eyes). Produced by the multi-talented Christian Hardy (The Leisure Society, Christian Silva) it’s a complex and heady mix of nylon and electric guitars, soaring strings, eclectic drumming and much more.
While putting the finishing touches to the album, Kristin found her head and heart full of new songs. It was inevitable. She has recently joined forces with brilliant drummer Julian Owen (Alison and the Earthquakes, Shrieks, Spacenoid). Together they have been working on a new set of unrecorded songs which they are currently playing live.
A member of the Willkommen Collective and based in Brighton, she has taken part in many of their live shows and contributed to the label’s compilations.

“Wowed by the end of her stripped down, beautifully finger picked songs that allowed her increasingly dark and melancholic vocals to impress the subdued crowd at the Bar Stage.”
Drowned in Sound
“She has a particularly soulful voice; very low and sensual, it washes over you and insinuates itself into your brain without you even realising.”
