Short Bio
Kiki Ebsen is a versatile artist whose work includes multiple music genres—jazz, folk, pop and classical. Whether composing new songs, performing or producing new music showcases, Kiki is driven by a stream of creativity and the pure joy of connecting with audiences around the world.
Her sixth and latest record, “Scarecrow Sessions,” has enjoyed worldwide critical acclaim. Born from a desire to fulfill her father’s wish for her to sing jazz (her father is iconic performer, Buddy Ebsen), Kiki recorded an album of songs that had a connection to his life and seven-decade career, beginning with his New York Vaudeville days and Hollywood’s Golden Era.
From that record she created the multimedia touring show “To Dad with Love: A Tribute to Buddy Ebsen” with the help of her brother, award-winning video editor, Dustin Ebsen. It’s been described as “...a brilliant, must-see show” by Cabaret Scenes magazine.
Kiki has also created The Joni Mitchell Project, a versatile show that pays tribute to the music of one of the most inspirational singer-songwriters. She also hosts her own peace.harmony concert series, highlighting the songs of accomplished singer-songwriters. Cybercasts of these concerts benefit Kiki's California nonprofit, The Healing Equine Ranch. Kiki is a Yamaha artist who performs solo, and in duo, trio, and with orchestra. More at www.kikiebsen.com
