Kina Grannis



Kina Grannis is one of those musicians who got their start on YouTube. In 2007 Grannis started making videos of her performances and got her big break a few months later when she won Dorito's Crash The Superbowl contest. Her music video "Message From Your Heart" was aired during the Superbowl and seen by 97 million viewers, which ended up scoring her a record deal. In the last 2 years Kina Grannis has produced 3 EPs and plenty more youtube videos, but on February 23rd, Kina will independently release her debut full length, Stairwells. Check out the appropriately-themed track, especially if you're a fan of Ingrid Michaelson, Missy Higgins or Colbie Caillat.

honestly, no matter how big she gets she will remain true to herself in music, life, and love. she is someone that is purely to make someone's day better. when i "found" her i really wondered why she wasn't a big a star a Jason Mraz or Colbie Caillat. I could see her featuring in a Jason Mraz music video. That would be a huge step for her.
