Multi-talented Sydney based singer, songwriter, performer Kirin J Callinan is an ambitious man. “I want to make great records. I want to make engaging & entertaining music videos. And I want to put on the best dog gamn show ever witnessed, for you and people just like you, the world over,” he says.
However, for Kirin to take his art to the next level and tour internationally, complete new videos, write and record a new album, he needs to fund it all. As a result, Kirin has created a Pozible campaign. With just 6 days remaining, he’s only a few thousand dollars short of his goal. If you’re into Kirin’s music or just admire an artist who pushes the boundaries, visit the Pozible site now and make a pledge.

After over a decade of performing under many guises, Kirin J Callinan has become one of Australia’s most iconic contemporary artists. As a former member of formerly young and currently former bands The Valentinos and Mercy Arms; and current co-conspirator and accomplice to currently current bands Jack Ladder & The Dreamlanders and Lost Animal, Kirin J Callinan stepped out from the shadows of the Australian underground with the genre-defying sounds of 2013’s solo LP ‘Embracism’, generating global intrigue and praise.
Dedicated to his craft, Kirin has toured and played alongside some of the most progressive and unique contemporary artists worldwide, released award winning video clips (garnering nominations & top gongs from JJJ, SMAC & Rage), been involved with a number of critically acclaimed albums, garnered an Australian Music Prize short-listing for debut solo album ‘Embracism’ and has received full length features and reviews in publications such as The NY Times, Pitchfork, Clash, The Quietus and more. You’d think Kirin has finally cracked it! However, it seems awards and press quotes don’t pay the bills.
