Barrie songstress Kalyna Rakei draws on ska, soul and R'nB for 'Who Knew'

Will McGuirk June 18, 2018

Who knew? Lots going on with Kalyna who has a sweet Amy Winehouse vibe, a little Jully Black, a little Serena Ryder. Lots going on and not just in the song from her new album, her fourth, "Before & After You" now available. Along with a lyric video which was drawn by Kalyna, the album comes with a hand drawn 24 four page comic telling the story of the album and which includes lyrics and liner notes. AND . . . the record is a two-part concept album, the before and the after. So after all that settle in, look, listen, read, immerse yourself in Rakei.
