It feels like it's just starting in America and the UK. It's great to have a loyal fanbase in Australia and New Zealand. People in America say how polished our band are, but that didn't happen overnight; that came from doing all this touring back home. Kimbra americaaustraliaback share on social
I moved from New Zealand to Melbourne when I was 17. I'd planned to go to university to study French, but I was offered a contract to write and record an album that was too good to pass up. Looking back now I think that was pretty young but, at the time, I was ready to have an adventure. Kimbra adventurealbumback share on social
When you work on an album for three and a half years, you're kind of ready for it to get out there. To have your songs reach people. Kimbra albumhalfkind Change image and share on social
I like challenging people. I love pop music that can just throw you off. Kimbra challengelovemusic Change image and share on social

You can get really left of centre influences in mainstream pop. Michael Jackson and Prince are some of the most progressive artists ever if you actually dissect their songs there's some crazy stuff going on. Kimbra artistcentrecrazy share on social
I feel far more connected to the whole band if I can somehow physically respond... with my body. Kimbra bandbodyconnect Change image and share on social
I have times when I doubt what I'm doing. When those moments hit, I think about how grateful I am to be able to do what I do every day. It was harder when I started because I didn't see the response, but now I'm out there playing for people and seeing them happy, which makes it all worthwhile. Kimbra daydoubtgrateful share on social
People like Jeff Buckley, the Mars Volta and Bjork made me listen to music differently. You learn the voice is an instrument you can do crazy things with. Kimbra bjorkbuckleycrazy Change image and share on social
