Kirin J Callinan is an apex predator. A butterfly. A grassfire. A beautiful baby boy wandered curiously into trouble.

The question remains, "but can he sing?"

In May 2024 in venues across Australia you'll have that answer, to not only the aforementioned singing ability but also to the source of this much spoken mania, this insanity, this total abandon, that dare say exists within all of us. Makes you wonder if you've just missed out. If you're a coward for never trying. If you were ever on the field in the first place.

So often misunderstood by the masses, name dropped & revered by fellow artists and loved by his niche, savvy & eclectic fanbase alike, Kirin's much speculated, almost mythical fourth full length LP 'If I Could Sing' released on February 2nd 2024 on Worse Records, some say his finest and certainly the Worse one yet.
