About Kama Linden

ginaartistbutton (13K)

Brooklyn born Kama Linden is a fireball of high energy, passion, and versatility. One would never guess that she was afraid to sing when she was auditioning for musical theater! But then again, she is full of surprises, starting with taking her future into her own hands by writing her first song at the age of 11.

Keeping the torches of pat Benatar and Patty Smyth alive, Kama’s music is not easily forgotten once she gets under your skin...and she will! This gutsy lyricist will catch you with her edgy voice, a sound that is undeniably her own and will make you do a double take when you listen to her songs -- you could swear that one minute she was sitting next to you singing a lost love lullaby and then next minute, dancing awfully close to you in a nightclub.

Kama is currently spent three years touring the US and Europe in support of her first album “Uninhibited”, Now she is launching her new tours with her latest album, BETTER LATE THAN NEVER. The production was done in part at COVE CITY SOUND STUDIOS, thereby bringing her music to an even higher, more polished sound. The topics are more adult, and the album is a complete story about a single woman's journey through life, love, dissappointments, discoveries and triumphs. With both album’s availability on iTunes, DIGSTATION, and along with her tracks being placed in television shows and movie soundtracks, Kama is constantly on the go whether she is doing TV appearances or major festivals.

This girl is everything rolled into one: sensuality, sex, hope, heartbreak, and some good ol’ fashioned phat tracks! So, remember her name: Kama Linden, because she’s coming to your town next!
