Kiria is a British singer, songwriter and guitarist, born and currently based in London〔(Discogs.com entry )〕 Her debut album ''Radio'' was released in October 2010, by independent record label Koochie Coo Records.〔('Radio' at Amazon.co.uk )〕 ==Musical style== Kiria plays melodic guitar pop incorporating elements of punk rock, with the singer citing original British punk groups, such as the Sex Pistols and The Clash as key inspirations.〔(Interview with Kiria at Veglam webzine )〕 This combination of influences has led some critics to associate her music with the pop punk genre 〔(Gig review at Music-News.com )〕 〔'Radio' review Black Velvet (magazine) Issue 66 "Kiria is a feisty Londoner with a skill for throwing out pop-punk tunes"〕 , however Kiria has made efforts to distance herself from the label, telling ''EGL Magazine'' she resents associations to "bad, cheap, manufactured record 'industry' style 'punk' pop".〔('An interview with Kiria' - EGL Magazine ) 〕 Instead she has adopted the tag 'Pink Punk', a phrase initially used by veteran Ritz journalist Frances Lynn to describe her music.〔(Kiria, The Star Who Sings Pink Punk by Frances Lynn ) 〕 Other critics have commented that ''Radio'' is too diverse in its musical influences to be easily categorized,〔('Radio' review at SonicShocks.com )〕 with particular reference being made to reggae track ''And Another Thing'' 〔('Radio' review at SonicShocks.com )〕 - and notably more aggressive, overtly punk-influenced closing track ''Live Sex On Stage'',〔('Radio' review at TheMayfairMallZine.com )〕〔('Radio' review at SonicShocks.com )〕 on which Kiria duets with actor and comedian Paul Kaye.〔('Live Sex On Stage - Kiria ft Mike Strutter' - video at YouTube.com )〕 Kiria and Kaye have also appeared onstage together in Kaye's Mike Strutter Group,〔(Interview with Kiria at Save A Scream webzine )〕 and at media events such as 2008's Loaded LAFTA Awards.〔(Paul Kaye & Kiria Loaded Laftas gallery )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kiria (musician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
