“KINLEY is an award-winning songwriter, educator, and multi-instrumentalist from Charlottetown, PEI who has just released her newest single “We All Take Turns To Grow”. This release will be the new theme song for the NuWelcom app’s video series, NuToc. NuWelcom is an app that sends notifications from government sources in PEI to your smartphone in 12 different languages.
Migs Lava, Canadian Beats

“One year following the release of her single “Run With You,” KINLEY is back with a video for the track. Brimming with horses and a lust for friendship, the new video touches on familiar imagery for residents of Prince Edward Island and will surely be a hit with all fans of all things equestrian.“
Micaela Cockburn, The East

”It’s obvious that singer/songwriter Kinley Dowling pours herself into every song she writes. The stories she deals with are clearly very personal, with little room for ambiguity. However, she sings with such clarity and such carefully chosen words that you can’t help but find a way to relate.”
Maggie McLean, The East

”KINLEY’s vocal performances are sweet and soothing and the lyrics she produces are both specific and personal to her, but also deeply relatable and evocative. The music is light and open, but also tastefully moody at times and helps guide the narrative journey that KINLEY’s lyrics lay the foundation for.”
Max Reid, Canadian Beats

”The glue that holds KINLEY’s songs in a cohesive whole is the artist’s adventurous heart. Decorated with lilting tones of textured folk, rock, and pop, KINLEY feels fully realized on the project’s self-titled effort.”
Jonathan Frahm, Pop Matters

”KINLEY continues to pair thoughtful and emotive lyrics with upbeat tones. A bearer of light who isn't afraid to move into the dark, KINLEY's shift to pop sweetness only widens her reach.”
Kaitlin Ruether, Exclaim

“When vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Kinley Dowling (KINLEY) released her debut solo album in 2016, Letters Never Sent, she knew it would rock the boat. The Islander and longtime member of Newfoundland’s Hey Rosetta! wrote openly about her experience of sexual assault on the track Microphone.”
Canadian Women's Foundation

”The gentle melody of ‘Golden Days’ will no doubt brighten your day as you listen to Kinley’s playlist contribution inspired by her favourite beach in PEI. Find it now on the Blundstone Playlist Volume III and look forward to the warm summer days to come.”

”A new sexual health curriculum based on a P.E.I. musician’s award-winning song and music video is now being taught in Island classrooms. The new health curriculum resource, ‘The Microphone Project’, was made available this fall to help teachers engage Grade 9 youth in sex health education discussions. The province collaborated with singer-songwriter Kinley Dowling, educators and community organizations to develop the new resource. The curriculum is inspired by Dowling’s song and music video, ‘Microphone’.”
The Guardian

“Kinley Dowling is stepping in for Prince Edward Island’s tourism board with her latest video, “Golden Days.” Filmed at the island’s Blooming Point back in October of 2017, the video is a reminder that maybe Prince Edward Island should be topping your autumn vacation destination list.“
Alex Cook, The East

Fountain School of Performing Arts

”When sought-after string player and solo artist Kinley Dowling was a child, her parents took her to see a concert. Struck by what she’d seen onstage, Dowling remembers asking them whether being a musician was something she could do for a living. ‘Yes,’ she recalls them answering, ‘but it will be a lot of work.’”
