About this listen

This week on All This Noise we welcome one of the most vivacious personalities and voices in dance music, the amazing Kaleena Zanders. Hailing from Nor-Cal, Kaleena has been active in the electronic music space for quite some time now, lending her powerful voice to collaborations with artists such as AC Slater, Loud Luxury, Morgan Page, and more recently, Shift K3Y, whose song “VIBRATION” hit #1 on the US dance charts and was featured in this year’s EAFC 24 video game. Kaleena has also had her own solo music featured in campaigns for the Super Bowl, the MLB, America’s Got Talent, and the Women’s US Open among others. She’s currently in her DJ / producer era, however, and she dropped in to discuss literally everything with Val & Chad.

Some of the topics covered with Kaleena include her super power of communication with small woodland creatures, going through phases from musical theater to being in an emo band, breaking into recording dance music after taking a mushroom cookie, how basketball played a part in her growth, making the transition into DJing, having multiple identities in your career, AC Slater’s invaluable mentorship, the unexpected challenges of touring, and her upcoming EP “NIGHTMARES.”
