Kaia Kalise

"Lose the filter, love off-kilter, only sunsets dripping off your fangs." With poetic lyricism and keyboard-forward musical sparkle, Kaia Kalise speaks intimately, intriguingly, to the heartache and dark irony of the human experience. She followed up her 2018 L.P. debut, Half Lives, with self-produced album Strange Situation Procedure in 2023, joining a library of several original E.P.s and singles. She earned multiple awards and nominations for her songs from the Madison Area Music Association, RAW artists, and participated in the 105.5 Triple M Top 8 Competition. She has scored two short films and several theatre productions.
