Kym Tuvim has a voice that gets noticed. Drawing comparisons to Tracy Chapman, Joan Armatrading, and Norah Jones, Kym's voice simply pulls people in with its warmth, power and soul. NowOnTour.com says, “The lyrics are unforgettable, but the way they are delivered by Tuvim is the real secret.” Artist Studio Magazine agrees: “That's what you remember, the raw quality that equally defines Tuvim's vocal cords and the songs she sings.” A versatile and captivating performer, Kym’s down to earth, openhearted style is evident on stage. She can have the audience laughing one moment and tearing up the next. “With her thoughtful and personal songwriting and powerful delivery, Kym grabs hold of the audience's attention and doesn't let go until she steps off the stage, “ says Terri Mazurek of Rubberneck Records. Singing songs that stand fearlessly on the shaking ground of what it is to be human, to love, lose and suffer, “Kym delivers her heart in every performance,” says Kiya Heartwood of the award winning duo, Wishing Chair. “When she sings you can’t help but be amazed at the rich depth of her tone and the truth of her lyrics. She's the genuine article.” Kym grew up surrounded by music. Her father is a pianist and her mother's father was a pianist, composer and bandleader. Kym was writing songs before she started school and was a multi-instrumentalist by 15. In 1987, she moved to Seattle to study jazz at Cornish College of the Arts under such greats as Julian Priester, Jim Knapp and Hadley Caliman. After graduating, she took to honing her craft in local Seattle venues. When she released her 1996 demo When Allegra, the lo-fi cassette won raves and support from regional and national folk radio and press, as well as a spot at the 1996 Napa Music Festival's Emerging Songwriter's Contest. In 1998, Kym released her first full-length CD. Later that year, The Performing Songwriter Magazine selected it as one of their “Top 12 DIY Releases” and featured a cut from her debut on their 6th CD compilation. | ||
