Hailing from a small town in South Carolina, singer-songwriter KaiL Baxley’s bio states that he lived with his grandfather until he passed away when Baxley turned 12. Having no other family to turn to, Baxley bounced from place to place, rarely for more than a year at a time, with his headphones helping him escape into the world through a world of music.
This nomadic lifestyle became the source of inspiration that blends blues, indie rock, soul, gospel, and syncopated hip hop-style beats into what Baxley has dubbed “Soul Swagger.”
He’s been featured on NPR’s World Cafe and The Huffington Post.
