"The world is Kaye-Ree´s stage"

The world is Kaye-Ree's stage.

The singer-songwriter with soulful eyes and a voice to match always seems to be heading toward gigs in Europe, Africa and around the United States. Topping off her travels, Kaye-Ree jets between residences in West Palm Beach and Frankfurt, Germany.

The neo-soul songbird reaches audiences from Zimbabwe to Miami with her blend of old school '70s soul mixed with jazz, contemporary r&b and alternative hip-hop. The music is infused with lyrics that reflect a multicultural view, seen firsthand by someone who has witnessed both the mansions of Palm Beach and shacks of South Africa.

In between touring, Kaye-Ree said she's working on a CD, due to be released later this year.

Local fans wanting to see her perform will have to wait a bit. Kaye-Ree plans to be in Germany during August. When she returns to South Florida, the best place to catch her is at the weekly open-mike night at the Stage at C&N Cafe, 4047 Okeechobee Blvd., West Palm Beach; 561-616-8850. Shows begin 9 p.m. on Wednesdays.

Bio

Kaye-Ree is of a kind now existing or appearing for the first time. She is a visual illustration of the word new. Our fascination of new things to come is apparent and when it does arrive, our anticipation is usually satisfied. Soul music aficionados wonder what will be dubbed after the Persian/German singer-songwriter, Kaye-Ree. As for many artists, finding the right time to showcase their newfound talent is easier said than done. For Kaye-Ree, it began at the age of 3, where she discovered the stage like a forlorn soul constantly searching for a destination to rest in. As a dance choreographer and singer-songwriter, she found her peace in 2003 by winning talent shows, (e.g. Planet Radio) featured in Radio broadcastings as a singer, and eventually began formulating her music agenda as an artist. She then teamed up with renowned guitarist, Felix Justen, a musical mastermind that has graced the stage of Carnegie Hall. Together, the new duo would add to the popularization of Neo-Soul music by blending Justen’s classical guitar play with the astonishing song-writing ability of Kaye-Ree. The result would lead to independent and major gigs all-around Europe, Africa, and the United States. Their conscience message of life in all aspects of it has touched many and has lead to past and future collaborations. In fact, after collaborating with artists Metaphysics and Laygwan in Harare, Zimbabwe, Kaye-Ree has been involved in projects with Anthony Myers,(Producer of Donell Jones). Despite her constant travels, she does have a solid base at home. Her production partners in Germany are Dennis Smith and DJ Opossum of the "WEGOTSOUL"-crew and the Noizmakers. Various tracks have already been released on compilations, like e.g. "Outta my mind" on the Mercedes Benz mix-tape 7. In 2007, she was an opening act for Hip-Hop artist, Busta Rhymes, for his “Big Bang” album tour and has shared the stage along side legendary conscience artist, Kurtis Blow. The elements of jazz, contemporary R&B, alternative Hip-Hop, and 1970s soul live behind the corridors of her music, in front of painters’ canvas, and on both sides of a visionaries peripheral. While we’re searching for change, Kaye-Ree is bringing change by bridging the gap of old and new, interweaving lyricism with the rhythm of heartbeats, and allowing us to feel young again… new again…free.
