As mischievous as she is charming, Fremantle’s Mama Kin is part raconteur and all-out entertainer. With a widespread reputation for her unique blend of foot-stomping soul, heart-wrenching ballads and stirring live shows, Mama Kin is back with a swag of new songs, a shift in sonic direction and a new band member. Cinematic at times, with lush arrangements and bold production, her new album The Magician’s Daughter (due for release in February 2013) pushes Mama Kin’s own boundaries, challenging her trademark sound and ushering in a depth and potency underpinned by Mama Kin’s vocals that so spectacularly hover between vulnerability and power.
