Oh hey, KG Records Fam <3
I've been really excited to share this cover with you. I revisited this song recently on a drive with some friends and was suddenly struck by what a powerful song it was. In true Kina fashion, I thought it might be fun to suck all the upbeat bouncy life out of it and make it a little more feely fee...

WOW that's a long title.
Hi friends! I am so excited to share this new duet with Jesse/Imaginary Future :) Not to mention this video!
I keep trying to write out nice sounding thoughts, but I'm still jet-lagged in Singapore and my brain is failing me. The good news is, everything you need to know about this song, Je...

Not sure yet what I intend to say here, but the situation is that I miss you and I've been wanting to connect with you all but life has been a little crazy, so here I am writing you all from bed at 10:30pm, delirious after spending about 7 hours straight in front of my computer mixing songs and forgetting to eat, and having the ...

It's time!
I am excited to announce that I come bearing the Top 3 candidates for our record label name! I had so much fun reading through all of your ideas on our forum and I want to thank those of you who chimed in for taking the time and effort to put some thought into this. There were so many amazing ideas. SO. MANY. After ...

We've been casually brainstorming names for the new label for the last few weeks, but it's time to make it official!
If you have any ideas, this weekend is your last shot to add them (and your reasons why) to our Label Name Brainstorm page on Reddit. If you don't have any ideas, I want to hear from you, too! C...

It's release day! And can I tell you how amazing and incredible it feels?! Not only to be sharing new music with the world, but to be doing it WITH YOU. To feel the support of 1,113 humans standing behind me as I embark on this journey. It's mind-blowing and amazing and I couldn't be more grateful ...

Oh gosh here we go, guys...
To commemorate the very first original song released through our yet-to-be-named label, I thought it appropriate to share this First Listen with ALL of you.
I have so much more to say, but I'm going to save that for the music video post tomorrow. So... I suppose I'll just leave you to it...

Three more days until "When Will I Learn", the first song from my new album, comes out.
I am simultaneously feeling the giddy anticipation that comes from knowing a piece of myself is about to be shared with the world, along with the pure dread that that piece of myself might be rejected. I get this feeling every time I'm...
Thanks for being the fuel that made this possible, fam 🙏🏻

Writing to you all from a beautiful sunny Sunday here in Los Angeles. I've spent the last two hours reading through and responding to some of your messages on Patreon and I just had to take a moment to say thank you.
I can't tell you how amazing it is to get a little glimpse into your lives, to hear about what you stand ...

Hello friends!
So excited to share this video with you :) I had so much fun diving into this song with Jesse. The original is pretty masterfully written and arranged, and touching a song like that can be a little intimidating, but we did our best to honor it in our rendition!
Quick reminder that ALL of you are invited to...

Hello!
This is the first video out since the launch of our record label, and guys, it feels different!! I know we have yet to really delve into figuring this whole thing out, but I feel a shift already.

Hi friends! Here's another bonus video for you all this month! You might have caught it on Kurt's channel a couple weeks ago, but I always like to share it on mine as well for anyone who might have missed it :)

Hi everyone!
So this was one of the most fun videos in a while. I don't know how these guys come up with it, but they arranged the most insane percussive choreography and it was amazing to witness. I was so relieved to be the one holding the guitar ;)
Some of you may have already seen the video when it came out on Kurt's...

I wanted to share with you a fun little tidbit from yesterday morning :)

Heyyyy friends,
Imaginary Future (AKA Jesse (AKA guy I married)) has been working on a Beatles EP for a while now, and I was so happy to finish it off with him with this cover of "Yesterday"! If you haven't heard his other Beatles covers, I highly recommend--here's a link to his Beatles Covers EP on Spotify: 2017-02-28 18:02:38 +0000 UTC View Post
