Born in England with very little eyesight, Kiskadee, a British Trinidadian, grew up in an area where she was part of a tiny West Indian minority. Her father was one of the first steel drum makers in Trinidad and her mother came to England from Guyana to study violin at the Royal Academy of Music. Gifted with unusual musical abilities (including perfect pitch), Kiskadee learned piano and started singing at the age of two. By five, she was playing pan and singing in the family’s Steel Band - The Rainbow Steel Band. Whilst on tour throughout the UK and all over Europe, the Band performed at a number of prestigious venues including the Royal Festival Hall, Glyndebourne Opera House and the Commonwealth Institute in London. Even then, it was not unusual for Kiskadee to inspire such headlines in the press as “Young Singer Reveals Amazing Versatility!” After gaining an Honours Degree in French and English and then working for the BBC for several years, Kiskadee entered the Music Industry full time as a Singer/Songwriter, Pan Player, Producer and Arranger. As a result, She soon found herself in great demand performing at a number of major venues and events including the Millennium Dome (to a capacity crowd of 30,000), Wimbledon Centre Court, Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club, the BBC, and for Heads of State. Kiskadee’s international Television and Radio appearances include Channel 4’s ‘Big Brother Live Reunion Party’, ITV’s ‘Trisha’, BBC TV’s ‘The Weakest Link’, Central TV, Jamaica TV, Trinidad TV, BBC Radio 4 and 7, Choice FM, LBC Radio, Puerto Rico Radio and Dominican Republic Radio. In 2005, Kiskadee recorded backing vocals for Michael Jackson and was part of his production team for the project. In the same year Kiskadee featured alongside KC Porter in a tour of the Caribbean. Together with a 65-piece choir and live band, they traveled from the Dominican Republic to Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Trinidad, Jamaica and Miami, where she launched her debut solo album ‘Don’t Look Back’, which she co-produced with John Barnes and top UK Producer Andy Whitmore. The song “Here Forever” from the album was one of the 5 finalists in the American Song of the Year competition. Kiskadee has also written and produced tracks for other artists, which you can hear on her website. L.A. Producer John Barnes writes: "I experience Kiskadee as one of the most inspiring human beings I have ever met. I have worked with many great talents during the course of my career, but Kiskadee’s incredible collection of talent combined with positive professionalism place her in a class of her own." In 2007 Kiskadee founded minor2major.co.uk which is the world's first organisation to sell custom personalized greetings to mobile phones. Kiskadee is also the founder of one of the worlds most forward thinking music companies called ethicalmusic.com. In 2008 Kiskadee performed a most touching song called "Solitary Confinment" at Warwick University. The piano and vocal performance brought the audience to tears as she sang about her 3 miscarriages, the death of her father and suddenly going blind. A new cd featuring piano and vocals will be recorded and released in 2008.
