Kim is of Italian,Filipino and Puerto Rican descent. During the late 1990s, she was headed in a singer-songwriter direction and was recruited by Sarah McLachlan to appear in the final installment of her Lilith Fair women tour festival in 1999. She is married to Derek Axelrod.CareerLike a Star (with mixes from Peter Luts, DJ Lamboy and Mynt) has been the most requested song on New York's new Pulse 87.7 FM and has also been receiving heavy rotation from the always supportive Party 105.3 and Sirius Satellite Radio Channel "The Beat".With a string of well known played dance radio hits over the past few years, Sozzi's live performances remain in high demand. Kim performed over 60 shows at dozens of venues up and down the East Coast last year. This coming Spring and Summer will be just as busy, starting with a series of Party Like A Star concert events at clubs throughout the New York Metro area, Chicago and Miami.Kim is no stranger to the glitz and glam of the industry (her mom was a dancer and her dad owns an entertainment company) by the age of eight she knew she wanted to sing. Her variety of vocal styles caught the attention of Columbia records CEO at the time Tommy Motolla and signed Kim to her first major multi-million dollar recording contract.Kim was introduced by Columbia to Frank and Christian Berman, the production team that has produced numerous multi-platinum hits from artists such as Baha Men, Amber, Real McCoy and Moffats and recorded an album using the name Kim Styles for release through Sony Germany.In 2001. Kim's first single titled "Feelin Me" with remixes by Grammy award winner Hex Hector, Jonathan Peters and Rosabel proved to be a huge dance club hit peaking at #4 on The Billboard Dance Charts in 2001. That album also resulted in a popular music video in Germany featuring a very sultry Kim singing Every1's A Winner because Sozzi was difficult to pronounce in some foreign dialects, Kim went by the name of STYLES for the European market.In 2003 Kim recorded and toured with Opera star Jose Carreras from the world famous group The Three Tenors. They recorded a duet titled Show Me the Way" which has been released in several countries throughout Europe and had major chart success. "Show Me the Way" was also the theme song for the Ski Jumping Olympics in Austria.In 2005 Kim signed with premiere US dance label, Ultra Records and teamed up her strong vocal talents with the hit-making producers known as Mynt. That collaboration, returned Kim to the top of the dance music world as the first single, "How Did You Know" peaked at #1 on KTU 103.5 and even received spins on New York's top pop-station Z-100.In 2006, Kim followed up with another dance radio hit, a vocally stunning remake of Heart's "Alone" which earned heavy airplay all summer on WKTU.2007 was also a great year for Kim where she released another hit song titled "Break Up" produced by Cascada, the producers behind last years biggest worldwide dance hit "Every time we touch"! Her video was the #1 most requested video for 2 weeks on the UK's music channel "The Box" and over 300,000 views on You Tube.The music, lyrics and early success in 2008 for Kim's newest single "Like A Star" fits perfectly into how Kim views her place in the industry now. "It was a long time in the making," Sozzi notes, "it's really come full circle. I worked hard and got knocked down a few times, but I believed in myself and so have the people around me, and I knew, eventually, I was always going to get this opportunity."Kim's vocals and sound have been compared to that of 90s Canadian dance icon Emjay.Next up for Kim is a smash duet with the "bad boy of dance", Lucas Prata. It is a remake of the Human League's "Don't You Want Me". The duo premiered the track at Mirage on Long Island on New Years Eve and it is expected to be included on the upcoming Kim Sozzi Ultra Records release.OFFICIAL WEBSITE:http://www.kimsozzi.comDISCLAIMER: I own nothing.
