KJ Denhert has been making audiences laugh, dance and cry for over three decades. She’s self-produced seven records, appeared at scores of festivals and, since 1998, held ongoing residencies at The ‘55 Bar’ in NYC and at the ‘Baz Bar’ in St. Barth's.

KJ got her start touring the U.S., Canada and Europe during the ’80s as lead guitarist and vocalist for the all-female pop-rock band Fire, a tenure that she quips was her, “seven years in spandex.” After Fire ran its course, KJ became a financial analyst with the aim of bankrolling her dream to write and record her own music. She recorded her first Mother Cyclone Record in 1995, left her day job in 2003 and has produced a new project each year since.

An expert wordsmith whose lyrics tell deeply personal stories that communicate universal truths, KJ began to seriously hit her stride as an independent songwriter, recording artist and producer in 2005, garnering awards including first place at The Mountain Stage New Song Contest (2005, for “Little Mary”) and the Kerrville New Folk Song Contest (2006, for “Private Angel”). She also took home the 2006 Independent Music Award for “Best Live Performance CD,” which honored the album Another Year Gone By.

It’s KJ Denhert’s phenomenal gift for live performance that has built her a loyal, worldwide fan base, and her concerts should not be missed. Now, with LUCKY 7, KJ’s winning ways shine on record as never before. Make your own luck and experience the magic of her Motéma Music debut.
