It's no secret that there are a lot of great bands in Detroit, but every once and a while we cross paths with a band that we are absolutely wowed by.
Kimball is one of those bands. They just released their debut EP
North Wilson last week, and we've listened to it straight through quite a few times now. Probably more times than we should admit. Kimball classifies themselves as Indie Rock, but we would definitely include Alternative Rock in that description. Although the band has only been playing together for about two years now, their sound far exceeds what you would expect to hear based on that time period. They have a sound that you would hear on airwaves on college campuses across the country, and we're sure it won't be too long before that's a reality. They were already featured on WDET's
Modern Music with John Moshier recently. You can give that a listen
here. You can also give Kimball's new EP a listen below.
North Wilson has already been released digitally, but this
Friday night Kimball will also be releasing the EP on CD as well as a new 7" at their release show at
The Loving Touch. The record is being released by none other than Detroit's own
Jett Plastic Recordings and will be available on limited edition colored vinyl. Joining Kimball for the big release show are
The Doozers,
Remnose and Who Boy. Cover for the show is $10 in advance or $12 at the door. You can purchase your tickets in advance
here. You can also enter to win a pair of tickets to the show by emailing your name to hipindetroit@gmail.com with #kimball in the subject line. We will draw one lucky winner on Friday morning and they will get in the door with a friend for free that night courtesy of Hip in Detroit and
Fusion Shows.
Doors are set to open at 7 p.m. on Friday and all ages are welcome.
