ITS A LONGSHOT but does anybody out there know or have any connection to our RnB hero #ginuwine? We covered his timeless, classic banger “pony” (you know it:) and we think it is such a cool dark reinterpretation of his vision for that song. We’d love to get his thoughts on it…
.
Honestly, he might hate it but he seems like a nice guy so I bet he would be kind either way :-)
.
The world is big, but it’s also small… So if anybody knows Elgin Lumpkin or anybody in his team, send this video his way or put us in touch. Do your thing, Internet!
.
Our saddle is waiting…

OUR MAIN MAN! We just want to take a moment to thank our new friend WYATT OLNEY for being such a mensch. In addition to fronting his own killer rock band (@wyattolneyandthewreckage ) AAAND being so handsome (see pix📸❤️😎), he is also the local DJ on @999kisw and has been kind enough to spin some of our music on his #loudandlocal show. ¡Que Rico!*
.
We appreciate sweet Wyatt so much for spreading the word about our little outfit and making us feel seen a bit. It means the world to us and gives us the kind of pat-on-the-back that keeps us going, trying, moving.
.
So puh-LEASE support KISW at our local rock scene. And Wyatt! So many bands are keeping the torch aflame - @official_huligan_music@thejodyellen@filthytraitors@gniffketheband ! So listen, attend, purchase, keep the scene alive! 🕯️🔥🕯️🔥.
.
Like what you hear from us? Come see us 5/28 @hiddenhallseattle and you’ll hear it much louder. Maybe better, maybe not. But wild AF anyway.
.
With all the ❤️ in the 🌎,
🦈

🛸CLOSE ENCOUNTERS🛸: After a year of work we are thrilled to be able to share our second record with you. It's called "Sharkeologist" (great name!) and it's so-named because we believe this record really reflects how we sound and who we are. Full of life, layers, feelings. Raw and rageful. Groovy and blissful. Sweet and psychotic. It's everything our band is meant to be.
We're thrilled to be sharing this record as part of "Close Encounters," a triple album release experience 💿 💿 💿 featuring new music from our friends @gonzovi and @inclementweatherdept and @slothriderband . It's gonna happen at Tim's Tavern on SAT June 14th and it's just gonna slay, you guys. 🔥🔥🔥

Please pay attention to what is happening in this country. We're at a 5 alarm fire and the Democratic leadership is completely failing us. Please speak up. Here's a photo I took of tonight's blood moon that I wasn't even aware of until @therealshants made me aware of at tonight's jazzercise.
GET TO KNOW SHRKGLST #4: @rauldub
He's the newest member of the band, but I've known him the longest. Rick Weber (🥁) was in a much-beloved mid-2000s Seattle band called "We Wrote The Book On Connectors." Top 5 Seattle band name EVER. After many twists and turns and disconnections, I found my way back to Rick after hearing him bang the drums for @mjvsupertaco at our Sept '24 Blue Moon show. I was floored.
Rick, you are such an incredible drummer. And you're a damn good hang. You've elevated the band - musically and emotionally - since you joined. The wilder you get behind the kid, the better we become. Crank that shit up to 11 brother, I'll ride there with you:)
PS Your performance in the upcoming video (see first photo in the carousel) is incredible. Daytime Emmy Shit.
I almost forgot that I fathered a child in high school. Whatever happened to that kid?
