The Idiot Kids are More than Just Some Idiot Kids

This Saturday, June 25th The Idiot Kids will be playing at UFO Factory. We've told you about The Idiot Kids a few times before. Its a three piece featuring Nicholas Zambeck on bass, Ryan Chlebek on drums and Jon-Mikel Bartee on vocals and guitar. They're known for their live shows and play music that crosses genres from garage to punk. Take a listen for yourself here.

Although The Idiot Kids have been around for quite awhile, over the past year or two they have really been making a name for themselves in the Detroit scene. We wanted to catch up with these three crazy kids and get to know more about the band first hand. Check out what they had to say.

If you want to see The Idiot Kids for yourself and see what Jon-Mikel has up his sleeve this time, make sure you head to UFO Factory this weekend! There they will be playing with Characteristics, Flowers Bloom and one of our long time favorites, The ILL Itches. Admission to the show is only $6 and doors are set to open at 9 p.m. We are also getting some people into this show for free! If you would like to see The Idiot Kids and their friends this Saturday night, please send your name to hipindetroit@gmail.com with #IdiotKids in the subject line. We are giving away 2 pairs of tickets to this show and will draw our 2 winners on Saturday morning. Good luck!
