We see things they'll never see
Originally formed in the 90s, The Kynd reformed in 2021 and have been promoting the re-release of ‘Shakedown’ with sold out shows and festival appearances since. ‘Whispers & Tones’ marks the first original release since the heady days of the mid-90s. Written and arranged by the band, it was produced by Brian O’Shaughnessy at Bark Studios and mastered by Barry Grint at AIR.
‘Whispers & Tones’ is available to buy from their Bandcamp page.
Beefy Ocean Colour Scene riffs unite with Mclagan-esque keys, Ian Page vocals, and a glorious nod to ‘Sympathy For The Devil’ on backing vocals to conjure a modern-day mod gem. The middle eight is blessed with the freeing nature of Northern Uproar and the rock ‘n’ majesty of The Seahorses.
The closing stages see the keys flicker light a Brian Jones number on this tale of hope. It’s the positivity that keeps you coming back for more. Rather than entice you to the bright lights, it lures you to the smoke-filled shadows where the real devilment takes place. It’s a gateway drug to a northern soul and blue beat night which will change lives and reignite fraying ones.
The Kynd will finally release their second alum ‘Timelines’ on March 10th.
