Album Notes

Kimi Hayes- Singer/songwriter/guitarist from Chicago.
"Being" is her debut CD release (2000)
A deeply honest musical memoir..."moving, intense, and soulful," and at the same time "catchy and melodic."
Staff reporter from the Chicago Tribune writes: "Evening Prayer(track #1) reflects a lot of artisic maturity and depth,"and adds:"The CD is well recorded and tastefully arranged." Radio Belgium's Ray Pieters (103.0fm)says:"Kimi has a very hypnotizing voice,I will feature her songs on my radio show for a long time."
Kimi's musical influences cover a wide spectrum of singers and guitarists including: Van Morrison, Etta James,Melissa Etheridge, John Prine, Ani DiFranco, and Stevie Ray Vaughn.

Though the best way to really experience Kimi's raw and passionate energy is to catch her at a live show,"Being" intimately reveals her unique artistic awareness of the world around her, and openly shares her life experiences in song.

REVIEWS

this cd is brilliant!
author: Kim Majdanowski
Kimi showcases her writing ability in the most unique way. She combines her knowledge of life through music that really moves you to a loss for words. Personal revelations are seen by this reviewer through the song Your life. It moved me in a way that I haven't been moved in quite some time. Highly recommend giving Being a listen!

The Power of un-leashed Passion comes ALIVE!
author: Henry
Forget making single song selections, that will only mark the commercial appeal. This music, and these vocals are not of the ordinary variety. This is not just something you hear with your ears, its something you feel with your SOUL. I hope your equipment is in top working condition!

Incredible debut CD
author: Jamie
This is possibly the best CD ever released by Kimi Hayes (or or any artist). The diversity of the songs from the haunting "Annie" to the rocking "On the Run" and the melodious "Beloved One" leave you wanting more. Quite possibly a perfect CD.

Must Listen!!!
author: Krinkle
This CD just plain rocks. Being is a CD you can relate to, and rock out to. Warning...once "Being" enters your CD player, you'll never get it out! (or want it out!)
