KAIA FOWLER
March 2, 2018 @ 8:30 pm - 11:00 pm
$8With soaring vocals and accomplished guitar work, KAIA shares songs that explore life’s struggles and joys, drawing on folk, blues, roots, and rock traditions. Inspired by nature and the human condition, Kaia’s songs resonate with strength and vulnerability as she explores a vast emotional landscape. With over 20 years as a performing singer-songwriter, Kaia draws from a large repertoire of original material and select cover songs by artists such as John Prine, Carole King, Bonnie Raitt, and Stevie Nicks.
Kaia’s songwriting has been compared to Joni Mitchell’s for its lyrical poetry, rich melodies and engaging chord progressions. She placed as a finalist for the 2012 Great River Folk Festival songwriters contest. Two songs from her 2010 album Seams of My Heart received radio play on Woman of Substance Radio. The Americana Gazette album review had this to say about Kaia’s songwriting: “Each song is very well written, with a true authenticity of life. You can picture yourself or someone you know in each story line.” It continues, “Fowler is a tremendous lyricist. Her lyrics paint pictures and her musical notes add the color…” (Aug.-Sept. 2010 issue). Kaia’s latest album, released October 2015, is an EP titled All The Way, dedicated to the memory of her husband Scott R. Jaeger who died of pancreatic cancer in 2013. A portion of the proceeds from sales of All The Way benefit the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. She is currently working on her third studio album.
