International sensation Kimbra is releasing the US
version of her debut album Vows for Warner Bros. Records
on May 22, 2012. Vows features six new songs in addition
to tracks from the platinum-certified Australian & New Zealand edition
of the album.
Originating from Hamilton, New Zealand, Kimbra has been
performing her jazz-inflected pop since she was 14. She worked on her debut
album, Vows, for over three years, finally releasing it
Australia in August 2011 to critical and chart success. Vows won
the 2011 ARIA (Australian Grammy) for Best Female Artist and spawned three
hit singles; "Good Intent," "Settle Down," and
"Cameo Lover." "Cameo Lover" recently won the Grand
Prize in the 2011 International Songwriting Competition and is nominated
for an APRA (Australasian Performing Right Association) award for Song of
the Year.
This year is shaping up to be an extremely busy one for
Kimbra. Her haunting vocals and impassioned delivery on the Gotye track
"Somebody That I Used to Know" have helped propel it to an
international hit#1 hit. Kimbra recently joined Gotye on his nationwide
tour, and performed the track with him on Saturday Night Live April
14th. Later this month, she will head out with Foster the People
on their US tour, which kicks off May 29th with two nights at Rumsey
Playfield in New York's Central Park.
Kimbra will spend Vows release week in
Los Angeles: she is confirmed to perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live! May
23rd and will be doing a special show at the Masonic Lodge
at Hollywood Forever Cemetery on May 24th. A limited amount
