2. Kaila is a Canadian singer, song writer and musician.
Her style is best described as a mixed blend between
“70’s disco soul and rock edge.” Her music seeks to
find that perfect balance of harmonies between the
fusion of old school dance (Disco, Funk, Pop, Rock)
and new school music (Electro, EDM, Dance). What
separates her from the rest of the pretty girls that
can sing is her musical studies: Kaila studied
classical and jazz theory with an emphasis on Vocal
Techniques, Music Business and Live Sound Set-up.
While pursuing her solo career Kaila is equally busy
performing on a regular basis as a singer, DJ, and
keyboard player at home in Montreal and Toronto’s
most elite private parties with her multitude of
party bands. On the international scene Kaila has
performed in Germany, Italy, Denmark, Morocco,
and China.
Kaila is the type of girl who isn’t afraid of a challenge. Always willing to plunge into
the unknown and experiment with new things, her “why not” and “don’t give up”
attitude landed her a coveted spot on “La Voix” (the French-Canadian TV version of
the immensely successful American TV Show “The Voice”).
She is currently recording her first full album with BTB Music, which consists of
producer Sorin Pavelesco and rapper/songwriter Mike Kapoor (aka Mr Bolly). Look
out and expect more to come from this true, strong, passionate, funky girl.
