"Southern grace at a northern pace..."
...a phrase which accurately describes the musical stride of Kentucky born singer songwriter Kirsten Williams. Since settling down in New York''s vibrant East Village five years ago, Ms. Williams has established herself as a fixture on the New York music scene. With her rich, emotional vocals and heartfelt lyrics, she composes contemporary acoustic tunes mixing themes of urban life and love with sounds rooted in her southern upbringing. Performing regularly around Manhattan at such venues as The Knitting Factory, CB''s Gallery, and the Sidewalk Cafe, she''s an easy and enjoyable find.
For her third album, Between Home and Here, and her fourth, Flood the Sky, Williams has tapped into New York''s resources by teaming up with fellow musicians on the local circuit. Ms. Williams'' writing style has been compared to that of Lucinda Williams and Suzanne Vega, while her singing has been compared to the vocal sounds of Sarah McLachlan, Tori Amos and Margo Timmons of the Cowboy Junkies.
