began to study voice and acting.  Having always dreamt of singing, Kiri feared

the idea that she may not have been given the gift of voice, living in the shadows

of her classical Soprano mother.  However, eventually she could not deny the

music.It was the driving force behind everything.

Roughly a year ago, Kiri reconnected with producer-singer-songwriter, John

McIntosh of Dashney Music Group.  Though they had known each other for

many years, their paths had not met in the studio.  Until one day, one year ago,

John reached out and asked Kiri to sing on a track that he had written.  Music

chemistry bloomed and since then Kiri, John, and sound engineer Andrii Zubyk

have put their heads, hearts, and souls together to create a pop music project

that has developed and blossomed into something all their own.

Still at humble beginnings, Kiri is incredibly excited to begin to release the music

from this collaboration and is driven to keep developing this project into

something bigger and better.  “Songwriting is a process, never quite linear.  I just

want to keep writing, learning, and growing.  There’s no use for me to wade in

still waters.  Music was and is always about catharsis to me.  It always pulls me

through and celebrates my life experiences.  I just hope somewhere down the

line, one of these songs means something to someone.”
