Austin-based, Korean-American musician Kize Bae pays ode to the bravery of young children battling terminal cancer on hopeful and uplifting number “1000 Paper Cranes,” a velvety blend of indie-pop and hip-hop led by Kize’s soaring vocals bringing messages of love and joy to life.
Inspired by a Make A Wish Foundation documentary video and drawn to the concept of wishes, the warm and encouraging song writing is elevated by a vibrant video showcasing Kize’s journey to making 1000 paper cranes, which ultimately led to an installation of the same at Make A Wish Foundation’s annual gala.
The money raised funding a wish, the feel-good intent and purpose of this inspirational track comes to heart-warming fruition.
Starting her journey as a YouTuber and falling in love with song writing through a spontaneous challenge in 2020, Kize has mastered the ability to merge infectious melodies with impactful lyricism. With an added edge of being fluent in both English and Korean, Kize Bae’s musicality is one that resonates with anyone listening.
