First off, Kid Runner sounds like a hero from a 1980s video
game. I dig that.
Just today, I decided to look into my friend Bobby’s band. Way back in 2008, Bobby was in a band that I
liked a good bit. They had few songs
that I liked and they showed a lot of promise, but they ended up splitting up
when their lead singer converted to farmer.
His next band sucked and I gave up on him. When Bobby joined Kid Runner,
I ignored it.
Man was I wrong.
Today I was able to listen to Kid Runner via Spotify. I have not been so excited about a band since
I saw Margot and the Nuclear So and Sos back in 2006. They were playing at Victory’s tonight so I
went to see them live. For a band that
leans on electricity, they sound great live. I’m not sure why I love the ting
of a xylophone or dueling keyboards, but I do and Kid Runner has many opportunities
for me to enjoy it.
I don’t know anything about the other band members, but I
assume that I will in the near future.
For now I’ll describe them as the bearded bass guy, the bearded guitar
guy, lead singer dude, Fran the other lead singer but also plays the xylophone girl and Bobby.
I am predicting big things for this group. While this means
that we all might have to give up Bobby as he tours the county, I think we are
all willing to sacrifice our time with him for his success.
