Today’s Featured Artist – INTERVIEW – Kian Blume


Tell us about:

Your latest single you have released:

This single is a cinematic pop song about a girl I knew many years ago. The song is an intense take on the bittersweet nature of nostalgia.

Your first single and how you felt when it was released:

My first single is titled “Stop the Show” I was 17 when the song came out, and it actually reached number 17 on the Billboard Dance Charts. I was very excited about my first single, it still to this day feels like a big milestone in my career.

Your favourite song that you have created that is an album track:

I haven’t released an album yet, but I hope to sometime soon.

Your favourite song to play live:

My favorite song to play live is probably Daphne. I really connect with the song, so it feels like I can just get lost in it while singing it. 

The best lyric you have ever written:

The best lyric I’ve ever written is also probably Daphne. I really find the chorus to be captivating and clever lyrically-

“Daphne

on the main-street

of my memory 

Daphne 

you’re the caffeine

for my dreams”

Describe the feeling you get when you walk on stage to do a show:

Before the show I tend to feel very anxious, but once I step on the stage I feel a wind of confidence, and get self assured.

Essential items you always take on tour with you?

Besides the gear, I would bring photos that remind me of home, Milton’s crackers and also a chessboard so I could play chess during downtime.

Describe your fans in three words:

Young, happy, musical

A song by another artist or band you wish you had written:

Sunroof by Nick Youre is such a great song. I love the simplicity of the melody, and lyrics. So I would have to go for Sunroof as a song that I wish i wrote.

What we can look forward to from your band this year:

There’s lots of new material that is currently in the production phase. The next single is going to be a song called Parasite. It’s my take on toxic lust but done in a playful manner.
