Kimbra Lee Johnson (born 27 March 1990) is a New Zealand singer, songwriter, record producer,
actress and model who mixes pop with classic R&B, jazz and rock musical elements. Her musical
influences range from Prince and Minnie Riperton to Björk and Jeff Buckley. Her debut album, Vows,
was released in Australia in 2011. Singles from the album include "Settle Down", "Cameo Lover"
(which won an Australian Recording Industry Association Award), "Good Intent" and "Two Way
Street".
A reworked version of the album was released in Europe and the United States in 2012. It
featured several new songs, including "Come into My Head", "Warrior" (on which Kimbra was
joined by musicians Mark Foster from Foster the People and DJ A-Trak), and a cover of Nina
Simone's "Plain Gold Ring". Vows reached the top 5 in New Zealand and Australia; on 22
May 2012, the album was released in North America, debuting at number 14 on
the Billboard charts.
Vincent Fantauzzo's portrait of Kimbra was a finalist for the 2012 Archibald Prize. The portrait
was painted in conjunction with the making of a video featuring Kimbra's song "The Build
Up".[2][3]
Kimbra was featured on the 2012 multi-platinum single "Somebody That I Used to Know"
by Gotye. On 10 February 2013, she and Gotye won the Record of the Year and Best Pop
Duo/Group Performance awards at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards for "Somebody That I
Used to Know". This achievement made her the third New Zealand singer to win a Grammy
Award.[citation needed] Kimbra's second studio album, The Golden Echo, was released on 19
August 2014 to positive critical reception. Her third album, Primal Heart, was released on 20
April 2018.[4]

Biography[edit]
Early years[edit]
Kimbra Lee Johnson[5] was born on 27 March 1990 and grew up in Hamilton, New Zealand.
Her father, Ken Johnson, was the head doctor at the University of Waikato's student health
centre, and her mother was an orthopaedic nurse. At the age of 10, Kimbra began writing
songs. When she was 12, her father bought her a guitar and "after a few years of lessons,
she was on stage, performing with her guitar tutors. Kimbra attended Hillcrest High School,
competing in the national schools' musical competition Rockquest for three years running,
where she was awarded second place in 2004 at the age of 14. Kimbra made her first music
video, "Smile", for the children's TV show What Now. Kimbra was a member of the Hillcrest
High jazz choir, Scat.[6]
Career beginnings[edit]
Early public performances by Kimbra included singing at the Waikato Times Gold Cup race
meeting in 2000 as a 10-year-old and singing the New Zealand national anthem before
27,000 people at the 2002 NPC rugby union final. In 2007, after winning the Juice TV
award for Best Breakthrough music video for her second single "Simply on My Lips", she
came to the attention of ex-Independiente Records boss Mark Richardson
(Jamiroquai, Paula Abdul) and his newly formed management company and independent
label Forum 5 in Melbourne, Victoria.[7] She signed with Richardson and in 2008 she moved
to Melbourne, Australia.[7]
2010–2011: Vows[edit]
In June 2010, Kimbra's first single on Forum 5, "Settle Down", was released. She had started
writing the track four years earlier – it was finished with François Tétaz.[7][8] The music video
was directed by Guy Franklin. Perez Hilton featured the track on his website citing "[i]f you
like Nina Simone, Florence & the Machine and/or Bjork, then we think you will enjoy Kimbra
– her music reminds us of all those fierce ladies!"[9] On 10 December, the Australian
'indietronica' group Miami Horror released their single, "I Look to You" featuring Kimbra's
vocals.[10] Kimbra also stars in its music video, which features wide-angle and kaleidoscope
shots of her in face paint and dresses walking through golden fields.[11] Early in 2011,
Kimbra's song "Cameo Lover" was a finalist for the 2011 Vanda & Young Songwriting
Competition and eventually won the competition.[12] In March she issued "Cameo Lover" as
her next single, its music video was released in April and was directed by Franklin. On 13
March, Kimbra went to perform for Moomba Festival and ChillOut Festival in Sydney
at Oxford Arts Factory to welcome the release of her next single, "Cameo Lover". On 15 July
2011, "Cameo Lover" won the songwriting competition, ahead of third placed song,
"Somebody That I Used to Know", written by Australian musician Gotye.[13] On 7 June
Kimbra signed to Warner Bros. Records New Zealand for distribution in New Zealand and
Australia, as well as a worldwide deal for other territories with Warner Bros. Records in the
US.[14] On 5 July Kimbra sang in Gotye's single, "Somebody That I Used to Know", which
was mixed by Tétaz. Tétaz had recommended Kimbra to Gotye after a 'high-profile'
Australian female vocalist had withdrawn from the collaboration.[15][16]
On 29 August 2011, Kimbra's debut album, Vows, was released in New Zealand and 2
September in Australia. In its first week of release it charted at No. 3 in New Zealand, No. 5
in Australia and No. 14 in the US. In its second week, it rose to No. 4 on the ARIA Albums
Chart. Australian producer 'M-Phazes' produced Kimbra's track "Call Me" and assisted on
other tracks on Vows. Its artwork including body art and illustrations were created by Rhys
Mitchell and Raphael Rizzo. She has won the Critics' Choice Prize at the 2011 New Zealand
Music Awards[17] and Best Female Artist and Best Song (for "Cameo Lover") at the ARIA
Music Awards of 2011.[18] The US release of Vows featured new tracks not available on the
Australian or New Zealand version of the album. She had performed in various location such
as, at the Forum Theatre,[19] Melbourne
