On the heels of a highly successful Australia and New Zealand tour earlier this year, New Zealand songstress Kimbra has announced a one-off return show for Melbourne audiences. This up close and intimate show will see Kimbra perform at the Gasometer Hotel on Thursday November 22.

.

The two-time Grammy Award-winning, critically acclaimed singer and actor will perform the special one-off show in Melbourne whilst in Australia and New Zealand as very special guest on Talking Heads’ David Byrne’s American Utopia Tour.  Melbourne holds a special place for Kimbra, calling it her home for several years before moving to LA.

The 28-year-old artist, who is known for mixing pop and R&B with a tinge of electronica and jazz elements to her music – to produce a very unique timbre – became a household name in 2012 on her duet with Gotye on the ubiquitous eleven-time ARIA certified Platinum and multiple Grammy Award-winning single ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’. Her own debut album Vows, released in the same year, showcased the artistic breadth of a performer more eccentric and autonomous than simply a few fleeting vocal lines.

Kimbra’s third body of work Primal Heart, released earlier this year, saw Kimbra shift gears with a soulful, sparse yet punchy electronic-pop record featuring singles ‘Everybody Knows’, ‘Top Of The World’ and ‘Human’. After heading back to the studio, Kimbra has unveiled a brand new EP Songs From Primal Heart, Reimagined, featuring acoustic versions of four songs from her acclaimed record Primal Heart – out today via Warner Music Australia.

Of the new EP, Songs From Primal Heart Reimagined, Kimbra said:“My album ‘Primal Heart’ was a record that allowed me to open up in so many new ways. I wanted to keep pushing the potential of how these songs could be heard. I asked the incredibly talented Lars Horntveth to produce + arrange the songs in a new setting, reimagined through the lens of his unique melodic intuition, also known as the sound of Norwegian band, Jaga Jazzist (one of my favorite bands!). We brought a small group of amazing musicians on board to recreate 4 songs from Primal Heart in a more intimate, live, stripped back setting at Red Bull studios in New York.” – KIMBRA

An intimate, reimagined evening takes this concept into the live realm with Kimbra performing in a rare, stripped back incarnation of guitar, upright bass and piano across the US, before returning to Australia this November touring with David Byrne and giving Melbourne audiences a very special one-off performance for “An Intimate, Reimagined Evening with Kimbra”.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.

Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.

Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.

Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
