肯妮貝兒出生英國里茲,Corinne的父親來自西印度，母親則是英國約克郡人。她自嘲，從來都是身無分文，家裏連電視機都是奢侈品，全家人的娛樂，不外是到郊外露營，或是上教堂。然而，教堂也是音樂對她的啟蒙地。 Corinne在學校學習小提琴，處女登台卻是發生在教堂裏，「我們家返的是像清教徒般的教會，其實很性別歧視，男的做什麼都可以，對女的掣肘卻很多，教會裏總是寂靜一片，因為沒錢添置樂器，唯有用多重和唱的方式來吟唱聖詩，我覺得美極了，但不認為其他教友會投入其中」。
少女時代的 Corinne獲同齡的教友介紹聽 Radiohead和 Led Zeppelin，還給了她一支電吉他，從流行曲和搖滾樂的世界裏，她覺得可以逃離壓抑的教會環境。「我覺得女人手持吉他的時候很性感，我想這樣，站在台前。」於是，她和友人組隊，甚至獲得一家專門推出重金屬音樂的唱片公司合約﹔可惜後來低音吉他手懷孕，本來打定即使是頂著大肚子也要登台，當初說要跟她們簽約的人卻去如黃鶴。
Corinne的歌手夢碎，唯有回到校園，繼續完成她的英國文學學位，她又做過很多工作﹕清潔、侍應、售貨員，都是跟音樂無關的工作，直到她在一家夜店的衣帽間工作，走向樂壇的大門再次打開。
「那裏的歌手都是唱爵士、騷靈——我愈來愈喜歡的音樂。」
已婚的新秀Corinne去年底， 推出了單曲 Like A Star，迅即成為英國電台的熱播作品﹔她跟其他剛出道歌手不同的地方是，雖然年僅 26歲，但已婚 4年，丈夫亦是音樂人——色士風手。丈夫的名氣不及她，面對傳媒的訪問時，她卻語氣堅定的說名利雙收不會改變她，「我原名 Corinne Bailey， Rae是夫姓，結婚的時候才加上去」。雖然語帶天真，但她在歌曲裏寫的都是親身經歷，主打感情生活。
自小在一般教堂禮拜中演唱詩歌展現天生好歌喉，她那獨特嗓音以及創作才華，展現獨立搖滾精神在Helen樂團之中。
肯妮喜歡簡潔純淨恬淡風格，完全個性化之創作，同譜進肯妮在音樂各領域中喜愛之元素，隨著首張同名專輯的出版，聽到這位芳齡26歲才女，最具深度與質感的樂曲展現。
清新吉他伴隨肯妮靈韻慵懶唱腔，令人驚艷首攻曲”Like A Star”，彷彿被她暖調深情層層溫柔包圍擁抱，深陷其中感動不已；如同夏日午后輕啜一口香濃咖啡，享受微風拂面清涼，不由全身隨著”Put Your Records On”旋律與之擺動
透著閃耀挑動放客靈魂的”Call Me When You Get This”，加入些許弦樂配置，空間轉換於一場氣質高貴盛宴舞池當中；帶著微甜鬆軟音感譜寫出對於情愛世界期望的”Choux Pastry Heart”，深切親密徜徉在一個無壓男女關係之中
化身美麗音樂彩蝶毫不花腔作做的”Butterfly”以及打造爵士靈魂外衣的”Seasons Change”，都是展現肯妮令人震撼且最具實力之映證，英國BBC國家廣播電台即刻在2006年十大閃耀新星中作首位推薦，『肯妮貝兒』開創了在悠閒懶散星期天午後聆聽的音樂新紀元。
Put Your Records On
Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don’t need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet,
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete.
Maybe sometimes, we got it wrong, but it’s alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don’t you hesitate.
Go, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Blue as the sky, sombre and lonely,
Sipping tea in the bar by the road side,
(just relax, just relax)
Don’t you let those other boys fool you,
Gotta love that afro hairdo.
Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it’s alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don’t you think it’s strange?
Go, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Just more than I could take, pity for pity’s sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realise, that you don’t even have to try any longer.
Do what you want to.
Go, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Go, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
Oh, You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow
