History
[edit | edit source]The band formed in late 2006 from the remaining members of This Day and Age.[1]
On August 21, 2007, the band released their first record, an EP entitled simply "The Reign of Kindo EP".[2] The EP was a regional sales success, reaching No. 5 on the Billboard Middle Atlantic Heatseekers chart.[3] In 2008, they began recording for their first full-length record, entitled "Rhythm, Chord & Melody" and released it through 111 Records on August 19, 2008.[4][5][6]
The band's third record, an LP titled This Is What Happens, was released in August 2010 through Candyrat Records. The album was re-created in an 8-bit/Chiptune style by members Mike Carroll and Steven Padin, and released as This Is Also What Happens in the same year.
On July 30, 2013, the band released their 4th album, titled "Play With Fire", with its 8-bit/Chiptune counterpart simply entitled "Play".
In 2016, Rocco DellaNeve joined the band on piano, synthesizer and vocals.
On April 14, 2018, the band released their 5th album, titled "Happy However After", and released a statement along with it that confirmed a name change for the band, officially renaming themselves 'Kindo'.[7]
In 2019, Kendall Lantz joined the band on drums.
