One of a Kind
Celebrity siblings are often overlooked, even those who are talented in their own right. Singer Roslyn Kind, little sister to Barbra Streisand, burst onto the musical scene in the 1960s with her popular debut, Give Me You. Her career has spanned the last four decades, and Kind is now on tour to support her latest album, Come What May.
Kind and Streisand experienced vastly different types of fame during their careers, though the two share similar facial features as well as a theatrical, Brooklyn-tinged tonal quality. Kind took to Broadway and international television productions in addition to her recording work. She appeared on Saturday Night Live, landed movie roles and guest starred on several popular TV shows.
Kind’s latest album showcases her soaring vocals and has garnered rave reviews from some of the country’s top critics. Though her sister may be a household name, Roslyn Kind consistently proves that she too is an essential part of the family talent pool.

Roslyn Kind plays the Cannery Casino & Hotel November 14 and 15 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $10.
