Connecting Past and Present

September 1st, 2011

Better than an artist bio this beautiful feature article just came out in Kirsten’s hometown newspaper the York County Coast Star.  Writer Shelley Wigglesworth recalls of the young Thien, “Kirsten’s naturally curly red hair was the first thing to set her apart from others; though her musical talent soon overshadowed her fiery locks.”

Recently, Wigglesworth was re-acquainted with the grown up Thien “when I saw a preview featuring her on the Maine television show ’207′. I jumped from my seat in the living room and proudly announced to my family, ‘I know her! I grew up with her!’  I watched like a proud parent as she took the stage and her powerful, smoky, slightly raspy voice belted out a repertoire of bluesy original songs. There’s no doubt about it — the girl can rock.”

Delicious was also recently reviewed as an Editor’s Pick in Guitar Player Magazine (Aug 2011).
