KIMOSABE

About Me



Kimosabe is an eclectic art-punk/noise/punk-punk/ROCK/pop/new wave/power-jangle-punk-pop band from Charlotte, NC featuring former members of Kings of Mexico & The Mustangs. Think cowboy standoff meets incubus (the sex demon, not the shitty hippie nu metal band) meets Abbott & Costello meet Frankenstein.

The music is a raucous blend of guitar Godzillas destroying buildings while piledriving Keyboard Monster Zeros, boy vs. girl scream fights, the anarchic drumming of Animal (yes, the Muppet), with a healthy dose of good old timey pop hooks and aw-shucks, "look ma, no money!" DIY shenanigans (except that we do have SOME money and then we spend it on boutique effects and psychedelics [ask us about Bare Knuckle pickups and deep fried boomers]). Kimosabe is proud to deliver songs about bandit gunfighters, gay priests, their silly God, deranged 50s war pigs, and conformist cocaine-sniffing rapists.

We look forward to being your new favorite band.
