Kemal Kemp

Hailing from the Canadian west coast, Kemal Kemp is a singer/songwriter/dj/producer who comes from a long family line of music professionals. Encouraged by his mother, he was classically trained from a young age. He went on to study jazz, blues, opera, and musical theatre in his adolescence. During his training, he performed hundreds of shows and won numerous singing competitions. Afterwards, Kemp branched out to start writing and finding his own sound. He began producing and performing his own material by combining hip hop and his classical training. Fast-forward a few years, he finds himself in Montreal - a city that had a profound impact on the direction of his music. Always inclined towards heartfelt and upbeat records, he found a new love for dance music. Seeking to replicate that soul shifting feeling he got when the music connected with the dance floor, he was then motivated to craft a new sound. Now living in Ottawa, he is a driving musical force that fuses people and dance by incorporating the variety of musical influences that inspired him throughout his journey. Kemp's live performances enable him to actively engage a crowd with unsurpassed energy and stage presence.
