Singer Songwriter

Sufjan Stevens is an American singer-songwriter, born on July 1, 1975 in Detroit, Michigan. With his unique blend of folk and indie pop, he has captivated audiences worldwide with his heartfelt lyrics and mesmerizing melodies.
Stevens began his musical journey at a young age, learning to play multiple instruments including the guitar, piano, and banjo. His passion for music led him to pursue a career in songwriting and performing.
Over the years, Stevens has released numerous critically acclaimed albums that showcase his versatility as an artist. From introspective ballads to upbeat anthems, each song tells a story that resonates with listeners on a deep level.

Asthmatic Kitty was established in 1999 by a community of musicians in Holland, Michigan. Originally created as a platform for releasing their own material, the label has since expanded and now has offices in Lander, Wyoming, Indianapolis, Indiana and New York City. Today, Asthmatic Kitty is distributed through Secretly Canadian in collaboration with Sounds Familyre.

The unique name 'Asthmatic Kitty' originated from a veterinarian's reference to 'asthma kitties' during an examination of Sara, a stray cat that one of the label founders had rescued. This quirky name stuck and eventually became the identity of the label.

With its diverse roster of talented artists and performers, Asthmatic Kitty continues to be at the forefront of independent music. The label's commitment to showcasing innovative and boundary-pushing music has earned it a reputation as an influential force within the industry. Whether you're searching for captivating melodies or thought-provoking lyrics, Asthmatic Kitty offers a rich catalog that will satisfy any music enthusiast's cravings.

One of Sufjan's best - an almost acoustic album, but with beautiful songs. At times Sufjan stands alone on the stage singing and playing quietly with a banjo, and what you hear and see and feel is pure power. Minds and hearts are changed. Sufjan Stevens writes songs. He also writes fiction, is a record producer, plays every instrument known to modern man, is a graphic designer, and has knitted for Martha Stewart. But Seven Swans, a brilliant follow-up to the critically acclaimed Michigan, is a testament to Sufjan's songwriting, first and foremost.
