KD to support MEWITHOUTYOU across the US this summer

May 7, 2012

5.7.12

Over the course of our recently completed US tour with Say Anything, a bunch of you asked when we’d be back. I told you I knew, and that it’d be a solo tour in support of a great band, but that I had to wait until May to formally announce.

This is that: Through most of July & August, I’ll be supporting MEWITHOUTYOU across these United States. This is exciting for me on several fronts, as I love & respect the band & their family so much, and we’ve never done significant touring together outside of one Australian festival in 2008.

This is also my first coast-to-coast US solo tour since 2006, which seems insane but is true. Done groups of regional solo shows all over but never collected as one run, not since “Put Your Ghost To Rest” first came out. So that’s exciting too.

One bittersweet note: due to prior engagements solo @ The Bunbury Festival in Cincinnati and with the Goddamn Band @ Lollapalooza in Chicago, I will miss the mewithoutyou tour dates in Chicago 7/14 and Austin 8/3.

I’ll also be headlining solo dates without mewithoutyou July 26th in Santa Barbara, CA & August 9th in Naples, FL.

All dates are below; ticket links to come, for now you can head over to http://www.bandsintown.com/mewithoutYou and RSVP there. Hope to see you all out there.

Thanks,
Kevin

KD to support CURSIVE in the UK/IE; KD&GDB to play Lollapalooza 2012

April 16, 2012

4.16.12

Here at the home offices, it’s been a pretty busy day off from the continually successful SAY ANYTHING US tour (two weeks left – dates scrolling at the side of the main page and in the “shows” tab – thanks for the outpouring of support and welcome to all the new faces, been a really eye-opening experience).

First: excited to announce I’ll be back to the UK in June, supporting CURSIVE, a band I’ve known, liked, and respected a long time. Very much looking forward; I think it’s been like eight years since we’ve played together. The dates are below, more info & ticket links to come – also check out Cursive’s web site for more news.

June

01 Brighton – Audio

02 London – Cargo

04 Manchester – Ruby Lounge

05 Dublin – Academy 2

06 Belfast – Limelight

07 Glasgow – King Tut’s

08 Leeds – Brudenell Social Club

09 Birmingham – Academy 2

10 Nottingham – Rescue Rooms

Second: KD&GDB will be appearing at this year’s Lollapalooza festival in Chicago, August 3-5. You can see the full lineup and add us to your personalized festival planner going here.

Upward & onward,

Kevin

KD to perform at the 2012 Bunbury Music Festival in Cincinnati this July

April 3, 2012

4.3.12

Greetings – I don’t often get to perform in Cincinnati – in fact I think it’s been about 6 years since my last show there – so I’m happy to announce I’ll be part of a pretty stellar three day lineup at the 2012 Bunbury Music Festival there this July 13-15. Especially since we learned on this most recent tour that you can order vegetarian friendly chili at Skyline.

I’ll be performing solo acoustic on Saturday, July 14th, alongside Weezer, Manchester Orchestra, Gym Class Heroes, Dan Deacon, RJD2, Jukebox The Ghost, Grouplove, and more. Tickets and info are available at http://bunburyfestival.com/.

See you then (if not sooner, as I’m out with the Goddamn Band supporting SAY ANYTHING for the rest of this month spilling into next – dates all up on the “shows” page).

xo,
KD

“11-17″ Official Music Video

March 27, 2012

3.26.12 Proud to share the second music video from Between The Concrete & Clouds, this one for “11-17″. This is the second time we’ve worked with Aaron Powell, who uses public archive stock footage to make these singularly beautiful and evocative videos. They’re visual tone poems; he uses a song’s themes and feel as a [...]
