KIFF Bio: Kiff's classic song-writing and soulful, pop-rock hooks have been called "stunning" by SF Weekly and compared to "Maroon 5 w/ a dose of Stevie Wonder" by SF Examiner. "Now" (the lead track on his second, self-produced LP, You Can't Keep It Down) is case in point. But the new record goes well beyond his radio-friendly first single to intimate ballads like "Starting Line", dance jams like "How it Feels" and "Follow the Leader" and rock anthems "Just Give it Up" and "Talk to Me." Kiff's music reveals not only rare talent but raw passion, wicked groove and what owlmag.com calls the "raspy smooth, velvet blanket" of his voice. Hear why several of Kiff's new songs have been awarded 5-stars by GarageBand.com and featured on Clear Channel's hot new artist buzz pages. ::::::::::::::::::::::::: Kiff's also got some pretty funky job titles behind him which entailed working at the White House for Bill Clinton, meeting with Bono in Dublin, helping launch the AmerCorps program, stock trading, MC'g a hip-hop acid jazz band, playing capeoira in Brazil, selling organic juice, guest lecturing at Stanford, Berkeley and other biz schools, meditating with Thich Naht Hanh and serving a network of environmentally + socially conscious CEO's. He also a fan of Trader Joe's, Jim Cramer and Jack Bauer....all true, but for another day. Check out Kiff's music at KIFF.com.
