Christina Kennedy watches her love head off to San Diego, CA in her hauntingly gorgeous new breakup ballad — premiering exclusively on Tinnitist.
The latest single from the up-and-coming teenage Vancouver multi-talent, San Diego, CA waltzes into your heart to the strains of a gracefully elegant piano line that slowly but surely builds into a lush, passionate lament — decorated with ethereal sonics that swirl around Kennedy’s angelic vocals and diaristic lyrics about the heartbreaking dissolution of a West Coast romance. With melodic instrumentation, her tender track takes the listener on a journey through the ups and downs of a relationship, exploring new beginnings and saying goodbye to something familiar.
Kennedy is an 18-year-old singer-songwriter, recording artist, actor, and filmmaker (writer and director) who has started to make a name for herself in the various industries. She strives to use her talents, energetic charisma and understanding of emotional intelligence to help others in their struggles and speak up about important issues like mental and emotional well-being. With a passion for creating alt-pop along with self-directed videos and heartfelt independent films, Christina works hard to bring creatives from all over the big city together and someday bring people from all over the world together too.
Drawing inspiration from a variety of musical genres such as all variations of pop, folk, R&B and soul, Christina combines compelling lyrics, catchy melodies and dynamic instrumentation to create a unique sound that is intimate, ambient, and yet purposeful. Trained vocally since she was nine years old, she uses her three octave range to express herself with deep and soulful lyrics which she invites her audience to tap into the same energy. She focuses on themes such as love, pain, self-discovery, reflection in her ballad and storytelling lyrics. Christina hopes that her music will allow others to feel heard and seen in their struggles and will find comfort in the realness of the lyrics.
Despite her young age, Christina has already started to make waves in the industry, performing at local venues and gaining airplay. She hopes to reach a larger audience over the upcoming years and share experiences and stories through her music. She is currently working on her debut EP.
