IndustryMe Caught up with April Kry to find out more about the woman behind the powerful voice

IM: Are people often surprised about how powerful your voice is?

AK: Actually, when I step off stage people are usually pretty shocked! My number one comment is “how can such a big voice come out of such a small person?!” I just laugh. I used to get made fun of for being 4’11” in school, now I use it to my advantage.

IM: Your musical background is very much routed in the church, does this influence your music, if so how?

AK: My roots will always be there, and it did play a huge role in my life musically, as well. Gospel and Christian music were the first genres I started listening to and it truly molded me into the artist I am today.

IM: What are you working on right now? 

AK: I’m gathering the last few songs for my EP. I just released my single, “While We’re Young” and I cannot wait to put out this next project. I’ve been working on it now for about two years, so it’s really special to me.

IM: Who’s on your playlist right now?

AK: I love Seth Ennis, Kelleigh Bannen, and really enjoying Lauren Alaina’s record!

IM: If there was any artist you could collaborate with right now who would it be and why?

AK:  I would die and go to heaven if I could collaborate with John Mayer. His talent amazes me everyday.

IM: Will there be a tour in the near future?

AK: That’s actually my goal for this year. I would love to get on a tour! Performing live is my favourite part of being an artist because I get to interact with my fans and see their reaction to my music in real time!
