It’s so quick to get the vibe of the music of Kina Grannis, by just watching her Youtube channel, I just got a sudden excitement to see her perform live here in Manila after some Youtube vids.
To all fans of Kina Grannis here in the Philippines, you should not miss her 1st time live act this coming Sept 27.

DETAILS:
The first time Filipino fans met Kina Grannis, it was a match made in music heaven. Fans were captivated by her soothing voice and girl next door beauty.
It’s been three years since Kina has been back to Manila but the time has finally come as she returns for a Southeast Asia leg of her “Elements” tour.
The heartthrob from California has been living and breathing music ever since she was a young girl. Her passion for music has brought her from learning to play the violin, the piano, guitar and even the ukulele.
Her talents were thrust into the limelight when her music video “Message From Your Heart” won a competition and was shown during the Super Bowl in front of its 97 million viewers. The competition included a record deal, which Kina eventually forfeited, choosing instead to self-release her album and keep creative control.
Her debut album – Stairwells – debuted on BILLBOARD’S TOP 200 chart (and #2 on its new artist chart) due in large part to her devoted online following. Kina's sophomore album – Elements – written entirely by Kina and produced by Matt Hales (Aqualung), was released in May, 2014 and debuted in the TOP 50 on Billboard’s Top 200 Chart (and top 5 on its Folk Chart). Elements marks an undeniable maturity in songwriting and artistry and documents a period of growth and change in Kina's personal life, complete with an honesty and vulnerability that she's excited to share with the universe. Kina’s music is dark and driving, sweet and soaring, melancholy, humble, heartfelt and hopeful.
Her latest album and tour also represents an evolution not only as an artist but as a person for the YouTube sensation. When she first came to Manila, she was a solo act. This time around, she comes to Manila with her fellow artist and husband, Imaginary Future.
Kina Grannis will perform at Kia Theatre (formerly New Frontier Theater) in Araneta Center on Sunday September 27, 2015 7:30 PM. Featuring Gentle Bones and Imaginary Future.
