Kiley Dean

Kiley Dean Bowlin (born July 12, 1982 in Alma, Arkansas), known professionaly as Kiley Dean, is an American female R&B singer.

Growing up in Orlando, Florida, Kiley made early footsetps into music business. In 1998 she landed an audition for Britney Spears and was hired as background singer. After touring all over the world, she was justly signed to Timbaland's Beat Club Records. With the assistance of R&B/Soul producer Robert Smith both created a whole new album called "Simple Girl", resting upon her southern roots and jazzy R&B tracks.

But, as with all fairy tales there is a glitch - the solo album Simple Girl was never released. Kiley Dean sat on the label for two years while everyone tried making her something she wasn’t. But in retrospect, the experience was a blessing for Kiley. “I thank God for everything that has happened to me,” she declares, speaking of the heartache, pain, and insecurities this business has given her over the last two years. “I feel so lucky because as hard as it’s been, it made me dig real deep and find out who I am.”

Now, Kiley has a new management team and a new album deal with Bungalo/Universal that will allow her the creative freedom she is looking for. “The new record is so special to me. There was so much going on in my head and every song just captures the moment.” Brimming with sensual grooves, edgy rock guitars and laced with a sexy, sassy stance, CHANGES is an explosion of passionate singing, hot beats, incredible melodies and meaningful lyrics that will make you want to push the repeat button over and over again. Boasting songs co-written by Kiley and production by Bryan Michael Cox (Usher) and Big Bert (J-Lo), CHANGES shimmers with an honest vibrancy that’s hard to resist. “I just think that this album is so real and personal. Over the last few years I’ve experienced so much in my life. I was able to let it out on this record. It talks about the things everyone can relate to.”
