Over the last two years, Kris Doty has built a loyal, enthusiastic fan base in Boise, Idaho. 2007 finds Kris and her band ready to share their sound with a much larger audience, as they begin touring and sharing stages with such artists as Banyan, DJ Logic, the Willie Waldman Project, and Dead Meadow. Kris is currently promoting her first album, Smoke in the Mirror, eight stunning songs that range in style, tone, and subject matter from the playfully epic to the disarmingly intimate.



Nick Collias of the Boise Weekly described Kris’s voice as a “blast-off into the upper strata of the bansheesphere.” The Idaho Statesman wrote that Kris “brings a mixed musical background to her work—classical voice, jazz bass [upright], and a folk-rock sensibility,” and noted that the multi-talented Kris Doty “can write a song that breaks your heart, pull a pretty sweet long shot of espresso, and occasionally dance with knives.” And also in the Boise Weekly, Amy Garrett wrote of Kris: “She holds the audience in the palm of her hand, unraveling the mystery between her unassuming sweetness and the force and emotion of her voice. Kris admits, I guess I’m kinda intense. I want it to mean something. I want people to be moved.’”
