I've played violin/viola on over 500 songs from hip hop to country and everything in between: Classified, Kathleen Edwards, Fortunate Ones, Hey Rosetta!, Rose Cousins, Jenn Grant, Matt Mays, Rita MacNeil, Buck 65.
Hello! I'm Kinley from the adorable province of Prince Edward Island on the east coast of Canada. I am also a songwriter myself and have three albums out under my name: KINLEY. I use Cubase and record violin and viola in my little home studio. I studied classical viola at Dalhousie University. I deliver dry violin and viola wav files and love to record different layers and double each part to get a full sound. I charge $175 plus HST with up to two revisions of the song.
I'd love to hear about your project. Click the 'Contact' button above to get in touch.
Interview with Kinley Dowling
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I started playing violin in grade 4 and in grade 8 I had the longest arms in the class so I was 'chosen' for viola. lol! I studied classical viola in university and at the same time started playing with rock bands. The day after I graduated university I got in a tour van and toured with a bunch of different Canadian bands for the next 15 years. I am happy to be home with my puppy Ralphie writing my own songs and recording on other artists tunes!
