Kimmor­tal

Kimmortal is a queer non-binary filipinx-canadian artist known for powerful stage presence and multi-dimensional approach to music. ‘Sincerity’ (2014) showcases a rapper who is not afraid to instinctively translate their ideas into adventurous productions. Their combination of subversive impetus and down-to-earth, human vulnerability in their themes quickly became a signature style that is unparalleled on Canadian soil. It’s hardly surprising that their follow-up, ‘X Marks The Swirl’ (2019), was nominated for a Polaris Award and was declared one of the most innovative albums in experimental hip-hop in 2019. Kimmortal’s soulful vocals meet raw, spit-fire lines, powerful beats meet variable sampling that lies somewhere between R'n'B and jazz, and her heritage as the descendant of Filipino ancestors meets the realities of modern life in Vancouver, Canada. Their latest album, ‘Shoebox’ (2023), draws on these influences, as does her new EP, ‘Sunniest Of Days’ (2025), all of which confirm that Kimmortal has reached the next level of their creative work. Kimmortal has opened for artists like Thundercat, Saul Williams, and Shad K, and performed at SXSW, Junofest, NXNE, and more. This summer Kim headlined festivals, performed shows, and connected with audiences across North America.
