When she was 10, the aspiring musician began writing lyrics. Kimbra’s father approved of her hobby. He bought the girl a guitar when she was 12 years old. Even though Johnson didn’t take music lessons, she managed to win a singing concert in high school. Then she sang in a school jazz choir. When still a teenager, Kimbra filmed her first music video for a TV show. Johnson embarked on a music career in 2000 when she was invited to sing at Gold Cup Race.
