Last year, Kimbra was a recipient of the New Zealand Critics' Choice Award 2011 as well as ‘Best Female Artist’ at the 2011 ARIAs. She recently took top prize in the International Songwriting Competition (ISC), the world’s foremost global songwriting event, for her song ‘Cameo Lover’.

To add to that, her collaboration with Australian artist Gotye on the single ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ has seen her top the chart in 18 countries, including New Zealand, Australia, UK, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and most recently the United States.
