isKwé is an R&B singer/songwriter originally from Winnipeg. Coming from a mixed family of Irish and Cree/Dene, isKwé draws from both of her cultures for a sound that is as unique as she is.

Following her passion and career path, isKwé found herself in the heart of the music industry when she relocated to Los Angeles. She has since been traveling back and forth between LA, New York City, and Toronto, working with various award-winning producers on her new album, offering a mix of her previous album’s smooth R&B vocals, blended with a new taste of old-style trip hop, heavy beats, and booming bass lines.

IsKwé’s first single, “Wandering,” from her upcoming album, has been climbing the charts of the NCI National Top 30 countdown, and was recently included in Hip Hop Canada’s Who’s Got Next compilation CD (supported by Hip Hop mogul Marc Ecko).

IsKwé is finding her audience in the best way possible: through heartfelt, intensely personal music that can strike a chord with anyone, and through a steady performance schedule throughout Canada and the US. With a new album in the works, 2010 is destined to be a great year for isKwé.
