If you don't know Kimbra yet, you will soon.

KIMBRA

Maybe you know her independent hit singles Cameo Lover and Settle Down, which won her 1st place in the Pop Category of International Song writing Competition; or you’re one of the 6,000,000+ total views of her stylish videos on YouTube. The name may ring a bell from any one of her electric live shows: the amazing festivals she has played including Splendour in the Grass, Parklife and Homebake. Or the fact she won the ARIA AWARD for 2011 BEST FEMALE ARTIST. Perhaps you recognise Kimbra from her contributing vocals to Miami Horror’s I Look To You, or her collaboration with Gotye on ‘Somebody That I Use to Know’, No 1 on the Australian Singles Chart for 8 weeks, the longest running Australian No 1 since Savage Garden’s ‘Truly, Madly, Deeply’ in 1997. The alluring duet, one of the most talked about songs of the year, also took out 5 ARIA Awards including Single of the Year and Best Pop Release for 2011. The song also took out the Best Video, Producer of the Year and Engineer of the Year Artisan Award.
