Bio: my name is kristine but people call me k.flay. i grew up in wilmette, IL, eating poppy seed hot dog buns and rocking air jordans a size too big. at 18 i moved to california to attend stanford university, where i studied marxist theory and pavlovian dogs. in between library cram sessions, i started banging keys on midi controllers and talking into mics. now that’s pretty much all i do. if you were to put hip hop, indie rock, and electronic music in a blender, it would sound like me.
i currently live in san francisco, hobnobbing with lunatics and writing music. i’ve played shows all over the country with artists like kid cudi, snoop dogg, asher roth, 3OH!3, minus the bear, and more. this past fall, i wrote, produced, and recorded a non-edible mixtape called MASHed Potatoes. you can also catch me on zion i's latest single, "coastin."
i like reading books and telling stupid jokes. i wish i could do a single pull-up. URB magazine said i had a “bad-ass style that comes straight from a feral and natural talent.” i said, “hell yeah.” (less)
