The Chicago Tribune claims that Kristin Kitko can light up the room with her disarming sense of humor and considerable talent. Her musical skit On Becoming a Woman and Other Lies has brought down the house from Florida to Chicago and beyond. Kitko delights her audiences with a reminder that we've all got issues with her hysterical sing-along Everybody's Family Is Messed Up (Including Yours and Especially Mine).

And when it's time to get serious for a moment, Kitko delivers a song like Mamas Don't Die or Rummage Sale and has us all wistful and in rapt attention.

But enough of that...before you know it, Kristin Kitko has you laughing again, maybe at a politician, maybe at the weather, or maybe at yourself.

Kitko has shared the stage with Ferron, Rhiannon, Angie Stevens, Scott Free, and Chuck Suchy. She has performed at Chicago's Old Town School of Folk Music and at Women & Children First. Kitko has been featured on Prairie Public Radio, Minnesota Public Radio, Laney Goodmans' Women in Music, Windy City Radio, and podcasts around the globe.

Kristin Kitko has performed to raise money for domestic violence programs, animal shelters, children's services, and urban renewal projects.

Kitko's self-titled CD debut was named Debut of the Year by Windy City Times. Her long awaited follow-up, i am not wal-mart, has just been released and is ruffling feathers everywhere.

Guitar Noise predicts that Kitko is a name that will go far, and it's looking as though she's on her way.
