20-year-old singer-songwriter, musician and composer Kiah Lindsay is a fresh artist from rural West Wales. Her unique fusion of Indie Folk/Country and Soul highlights a ‘New Age Wales’: a breathtaking and intoxicating landscape full of rich heritage and culture.
Kiah discusses relationships, homesickness and coming of age.
Kiah’s first independent release came in 2022 with a “Holly Humberstone” inspired pop track titled, ‘KEEP BURNING’. Soon after, she was signed by Cwtch Records and began working on her very first, full length LP. Kiah’s 2023 debut album ‘Meet Me’ is an enchanting and honest story of self discovery in which Kiah discusses relationships, homesickness and coming of age. Kiah takes inspiration on this record from artists such as Ben Howard, John Mayer, Lizzy McAlpine and Phoebe Bridgers, along with her lifelong passion of ‘Theatre’. She encapsulates us in her storytelling much like the written works of Stephen Sondheim. Continuing to write for pleasure and future projects, Kiah is taking a step into soul, with inspiration from Etta James and Carole King.
Kiah has already seen some career highlights, including her debut London gig at the Green Note supporting Chris Tavener, as well as supporting Dan Owen at his SOLD OUT show, both presented by TALENTBANQ.
Keep an eye on Kiah Lindsay, she’s set for great things…
