Since the day she
was born, Kim Kline knew that she
was unlike the other children, which
she played with on the dusty Texas
schoolyard playground. Unlike the
rest of the young girls that spent
their afternoons playing with Barbie
dolls and dreaming of Prince
Charming; Kim Kline could always be
found singing into a hairbrush and
dreaming of one day touring the
world. Heavily influenced by her
mother's love of Rock n' Roll, Kim
was introduced early on to the some
of the legends who would end up
being her greatest influences. Kline
was drawn to Rock n’ Roll as Texas
wildflowers are drawn to the sun
above. As with most legendary
artists; those that have true
substance to their music with which
any listener might relate to
throughout the years; she too has
survived a very colorful past, which
allows her to truly pour her heart
and soul into her writing and music.
Through all of the trials and
tribulations, which Kim Kline
encountered throughout her
childhood, she never lost focus of
her dream of one day gracing the
stage and entertaining the world.
Venturing away
from the safety of the small town
life that she had always known,
early on Kim Kline started taking
trips into Dallas where she began
working with professionals so as to
fine-tune her voice and lay down her
first recordings. Although, it
quickly became apparent to Kline
that she sought more. Even though
Dallas might have seemed such a
fast-paced metropolis in comparison
to the small, sleepy town of Graham
in which she had been raised, she
knew that in order to truly realize
her dreams that she must take the
‘big leap.’ She was destined for Los
Angeles .
It was not
long before people began to take
notice of this spirited newcomer.
Always looking to hone her talents,
Kim began working with renowned
vocal technique and performance
coach
Steven Memel who has
trained such artists as
Adam Levine and
members of
Maroon 5,
Taryn Manning of
Boomkat ,
Brittany Murphy and
Big City Rock. Kim
Kline ’s performances abound with an
intense connection that she shares
with her audience and the passion,
which pours straight from her soul
upon the crowd. Reminiscent of such
legends as Pat Benatar in her energy
and Tom Petty in his true rock n’
roll flair. After multiple
successful sold out shows at the
renowned El Rey Theater, Viper Room,
The Roxy and The Troubadour, among
many others, Kim Kline clearly
demonstrates what she was put here
to do. Look for Kim Kline to
re-introduce the music industry to
the roots of rock with a sexy,
young, hip appeal that generates a
genre all on its own.
Angel:
As a female performer, do you feel
you need to strive more for your
success in the rock industry?
Kim Kline:
No, not
at all…I love that if you work hard
for it, it will just come naturally.
Plus, like anything, music is
cyclical, and rock is on the upswing
again! YAY!
Angel:
Were you vocally trained? How did
you discover your talent?
Kim Kline:
Absolutely, I study voice! I
love to better myself and to
constantly hone my skills. It
fuels me to dig deeper within myself
and learn. I feel it has made me a
better artist. There is always room
for growth and improvement....in my
mind.
I discovered my
talent from singing on the school
playground with friends....they were
like ‘wow...your voice.’
Originally, I thought everyone could
sing. I've always had my pipes
and strong voice. I knew from
around 5 yrs. old of my talent.
Angel: Describe the
feedback you get from your audience.
Kim Kline:
The feedback is always sooooo
INCREDIBLE! I am such a live
performer and love to connect with
the fans. To me, that is what
my art is all about. I am such
a people person and to see and hear
them signing your songs back to
you......I am in total awe!
Angel: What is one thing
you would like people to know about
you.
Kim Kline:
That I
love to do things myself…you
know…I’m a ‘do it yourself kinda
gal.’ I am a true blue
southern girl too! ;-)

I always try
to inspire others and vice versa.
It is important to draw inspiration
from one another. This is a
gift that we all truly possess.
