About

If music is a gift, Kim Kalman received a major inheritance. Her grandpa, George Kindler, was a band leader with a hot swing band and his own radio show in the 1940’s. Known for his riffs on a mean sax, he played it his way.

As Kim Kalman rocked her cradle to the big band sounds of her mother’s favorite golden oldies station, WNEW in New Jersey, it became apparent that George Kindler’s granddaughter had inherited his passion for music.

Music is in her blood, and Kim plays it her way. .

Although fully in command of her acoustic guitar, Kim’s voice is the true instrument. Her song selection and interpretation echoes her spirituality as she alternately lifts you, rocks you, soothes and seduces.
A graduate of the College of William and Mary in Virginia, Kim earned her degree in business management while performing in local venues. After careful consideration, Kim chose to apply her business management skills to her own career in the music business. She followed her heart and never looked back. That road took her all the way to Nashville, Tennessee, where Kim has recorded all of her CDs: Moonlight, At Last, Close, and A Christmas to Remember along with her Christian CDs I'm Not Alone, Let The Door Swing Wide, I Look To You and her most recent Christian CD At the Foot of the Cross.

Kim has had the honor of being named one of the top ten songwriters at the Kerrville Music Festival and Honorable Mention in the Billboard Song Contest.

Currently residing in Kitty Hawk NC (Outer Banks) Kim performs locally at venues, weddings, Living Room Concerts, festivals, fund raisers and churches during the summer season and travels September through June.
