Kai Straw is a genre bending singer-songwriter from San Francisco. Straw creates head bopping, foot tapping tunes with a hip hop centered sound. Down to earth, powerful, yet subtle, Straw’s album Toothpick takes listeners on a lyrical and beat driven journey.
Kai Straw sounds like Citizen Cope but with less acoustic/bluesy flavorings and more 70’s gospel/soul added to the mix. To get the full effect of Straw’s unique musical perspective, give yourself the time to check out more than one song.
