Gasp! Kai Altair!!! She's Veronica Varlow's soul sister, who is Captain Maggots rival and fellow Bloody Crumpet, and there's no thread dedicated to her on here?!? I must change that! She is by far my most favorite artist, and therefore she deserves a ravishing review, especially in case any of my fellow Pyrates have NOT heard of her yet, so here goes:
Kai Altair's musical style is most often classified as electronica or new age, but with a magickal, bewitching, ethereal, hypnotic, and otherworldly twist. It transports you to far away places you've only dreamed of. Imagine a faerie, mermaid, princess, goddess, gypsy, witch, and belly-dancer all wrapped up in one beautiful person with stars, glitter, and the ocean mixed in and you have the essence of Kai Altair. Words do not do her justice.
Her biography, as found on her official website, www.kaialtair.com/kais_story.php is as follows:
"Since launching her solo career last year, Kai Altair has already become one of New York City's most talked about new performers. Bursting onto the Brooklyn music scene with the release of her debut EP Star of The Sea, Kai dazzled at House of Yes with her star-studded "13 Moons" launch party, followed by a packed performance schedule in 2010. Electrifying audiences from The National Endowment for the Arts to Michael T's infamous Rated X party, Kai's entrancing songwriting and performances bring fantasies to the air, and transport listeners between the worlds.
Recently starring in a glittering sold-out seven night run of faerie-tale circus musical The Wonderneath, Kai lead audiences into a dreamland of crystal and steam, sponsored by Swarovski Crystal. This summer Kai found time to produce and perform in "Mermaid Lagoon," a benefit show for The Oceanic Preservation Society and the Gulf Coast, as well as writing and performing two new songs for the award winning feature film Exposed.
Often seen bellydancing barefoot on stage, Kai’s music is a timeless tale of primordial magic. Her heartfelt and mysterious songs lead us happily into temptation, while exuding the strength of femininity. With her siren's song and hypnotic videos already spanning the 7 seas via online communities, Kai's ethereal, spellbinding voice and mystical lyrics are building a devoted international fan base. From Norway to Egypt, Oklahoma to the UK, Kai is weaving a spell that few can resist."
Her first video and single, Here She Comes, from her Debut EP Star of the Sea:

And finally, her newest video Shine, which opens with a magickal spell by VeVa:
