Just added: Kinnie Starr!!!!!

We have added Kinnie Starr to the lineup.

" my name is kinnie starr and scott harding is a man who has helped me immeasurably over the years in NYC by putting up my stinky bandmates even without barely knowing them, and showing up at my gigs no matter where they are, and making me laugh no matter how bad i felt. i would like to get on this bill, and play a few songs .... i don't know if that is possible... but i would like to be involved, and just show up easy with a guitar and no bandmates.so if you need a stressfree in betweener, i am there. either way i will be there.

love.kinnie starr

BIO: from www.kinniestarr.comThe Kinnie Starr you already know: MC-singer-poet-actress-beatnik - musicmaker - who was born in Calgary, became her adult self in Vancouver, and was raised on heavy doses of Zeppelin, Sade and De La Soul's Daisy Age.... Discovered she could kick it live one night in NYC (1993), when an open mic called, and the crowd carried her through three blazing encores ("edgy... enchanting," said the New Yorker).... Tidy (Canada 1996; U.S.A. 1997) was the first of Starr's four records - her new one is called Anything, but we'll get there in a minute - which drew critical acclaim from all corners."An artistic, feminist, angry, well-articulated rant of the highest order," said allmusic.com; "raw, funny and definitely an original," added the Globe and Mail.... Kinnie was a lead player in the alt-indie film Down and Out with the Dolls (filmed in 2001), directed by Kurt Voss (of Sugar Town fame).... Two years later, she lived and worked in Las Vegas, singing for Zumanity, Cirque du Soleil's controversial cabaret production.... and she found a new, comfortable home at MapleMusic Recordings releasing Sun Again in 2003- plus a publishing deal with Last Gang Publishing and their partner company Olé, …the same year Kinnie earned a Juno nomination for Best New Artist.... Also in 2003, Starr co-wrote Carmen Rizzo's Beso, a song for the soundtrack of the acclaimed film Thirteen... In 2004, U.K. production wizards Hybrid and Blackwatch cut body-rocking club remixes of Starr's song Alright (Release Records), a Sun Again stand-out.... She performed at the 2005 National Aboriginal Achievement Awards… Kinnie has toured Japan, the U.K., the U.S.A. and Canada in the past five years - which brings us up to speed with the here and now.... "A lot of people who love hip hop love what I do, because I'm doing my own shit," she says. "I try to uphold the old-school MC mentality when I'm on stage - taking the crowd along with me, rather than just playing songs at them. That's more like a rock 'n' roll mentality, to just slam the songs out."But wait, there's more: Starr has another body of work in progress, a collection of four-track songs that she's self-producing on a well-used, much-loved Tascam 564. "They're quite sparse, sort of Joni Mitchell-ish, but they're not really folk songs, they're tipped towards jazz and old-school Motown ballads." She has twenty songs in progress, and hopes to release ten - when they're ready.... Kinnie has started writing for the native publication Spirit Magazine, and recently interviewed Daniel Lanois for its upcoming spring issue.... "I write a lot, and very quickly these days, off the seat of my pants," she adds. "If I'm driving I'll pull over, or I'll take my sketchbook out and put in on my lap while I drive if I can't pull over."
