Celebrated for her charming vocal style and charismatic stage presence, Kim is one of New Zealand’s favourite female vocalists.
Winning the Battle of the Bands at the tender age of 18 with her first band The Gurlz, she went on to enjoy a career at the top of the entertainment industry, rising to fame with the multi-award winning supergroup When The Cat's Away. Their version of Blue Mink’s Melting Pot was a No.1 smash hit and the band broke attendance records on their many national tours, with special guests including members of Split Enz, and songwriting icon Sharon O’Neill, culminating in a standing-room-only 3 night run at The Aotea Centre in Auckland.
A versatile performer with credits in film, television, radio and theatre, Kim has worked alongside the best of the best, touring and performing nationally and internationally.
Fresh from a sabbatical to recharge her batteries, Kim is excited to be back in the saddle, better than ever and raring to go! With a killer band including legends Rick Ball (Hello Sailor) on drums, Paul Woolright (Hello Sailor/Pink Flamingos) on bass, and introducing Kristian Bennett on guitar with Justin James on keyboards, Kim presents a night of well-known favourites and gems, with plenty of kiwi classics thrown in for good measure.
Kim plays the Pt Chev RSA on the 8th of June. Tickets at eventfinda.co.nz.
