About

Inspired by living in this world.

Kin is a singer/songwriter who grew up outside  Cleveland, Ohio.  She currently resides in Ypsilanti/Ann Arbor Michigan and has been writing/recording music since the age of eighteen.  Kin performs back up vocals for Drew DeFour (CLICK HERE TO VIEW DREW DEFOUR) and is also a dueling piano player. She currently plays throughout the States, Internationally and on the Norwegian Cruise Line; EPIC, Breakaway, Getaway, & Escape.  

Colleen "KIN" Curran graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a degree in K-12 Music Education (BME-V).  She also received her Masters in Professional/School Counseling from Central Michigan University.  Her internship was completed at HAVEN, a non-profit DV & SA Organization in Oakland, MI.  

KIN released "16 DEMOS"  in April 2011. This is a compilation of her best materials from 2001-2011, and her first public release on ITUNES.  

Kin has also recorded with Drew De Four on many of his releases.  Most recent being his 5th studio album "Humanist Pop" & 6th studio album "Decade".  

Kin's 2nd public release (2015) is her album entitled: "frontline."  All songs on the album were written and produced by Drew & herself in Ypsilanti, Michigan.  The album is multi-genre, but focuses on using similar instrumentation throughout for fluidity. 

Kin is currently working on an EP that will be released in late 2021.  

2020 has brought many challenges to our work and family, but we were able to successfully launch #D4Live which is a live streaming performance on facebook from our studio basement. We will be performing show #200 on NYE for our Season 2 Finale. All of these shows can be rewatched from Drew’s facebook fan page. In 2021, we have plans to continue with D4Live in some sort of capacity as well has take the act on the road once it is safe to travel, perform inside, and bring our family. Along with that program we will be finishing a movie that was written and proceeded by Drew. We both had the opportunity to perform and act so we will be thrilled to share the release information once it is available.
