About Me

Debut Album Dirty Little Millionaire 2007
Art Rock in a car accident with a Mazda Miata full of drunk divorcees from Abileen, Texas. The radio stations fall in love.
King Vidor was formed in 2006 in Cherry Valley, NY, an enclave of hippy dreams put to pasture in the Northern Realm.
First Album (picture above) was recorded in a damaged home on Middlefield Center Road by damaged people.Now settling in for the recording of a second album, King Vidor is sifting through demos, laying bricks etc...NOW: working. recording. making notations. reading. cooking. cleaning. grass pastorals, shaded autumnals, electronic guitar swooshes, faded summers and laughing hyenas.

i edit my face with steel wool and I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)"I'm goin' to Breakfast at Kingdom Come."----little herd and a little mis-understood, Kitty still likes milk----beggars in baggy trou'----
