Domino's latest video for "Half Blood" that reflects on her family tree and her relationship with her half brother is "truly poignant" (PAPER) and her most personal to date. The video is an intimate compilation of families exchanging stories about one another set against a seamless backdrop. "I wanted to understand that connection in other half siblings too, so I invited friends and strangers alike to take part and tell their stories," Domino tells PAPER.

'Beyond Waves' is more than two years in the making and delves into family, wrapping up loose ends and learning to let go. Lead single, "Beyond Waves" that Billboard calls a "bohemian-tinged folk-pop track," touches on the birth of her son. On "Friend of the Family," Domino reflects on her relationship with her parents and reveals to Vice's i-D that the song "pays homage to these people who taught me so much about myself." The album was co-written with Luke Temple (Here We Go Magic), co-produced by Joan Wasser (Joan as Police Woman) and recorded jointly in Hudson, New York's Future Past Studios and Brooklyn's Strange Weather Studio.
A stepping stone for Kirke, the album also pulls inspiration from the intersection of her two careers as a musician and doula. Read more here: http://www.vogue.com/article/best-birth-labor-delivery-playlist-domino-kirke-doula-new-album-beyond-waves

A mother, a doula and a musician, Domino also has received praise from TIME, Billboard, American Songwriter, Vogue, Nylon, Entertainment Weekly, InStyle, W Magazine, WWD, Broadly and more.
