In a world of routine and normalcy, Kid Architect guarantees to add an explosive excitement to your musical world. This frenetic foursome from Washington D.C. provides a refreshing musical outlet, especially to those looking for something out of the ordinary. Since 2008, the boys from Kid Architect have been cultivating their own unique brand of experimental rock. Driven by heavy piano, ethereal guitars, and a versatile rhythm section, Kid Architect delivers it loud, clean, and undeniably catchy. Fronted by singer and keyboardist Thom Bridgwood, this band is causing a stir in the Washington D.C. area. Kid Architect is constantly propelling their reputation up and down the east coast with powerful performances and a clear passion for life and music.
After forming in late 2008, Kid Architect wasted no time in writing, recording, and self-releasing their first four-song EP “PhilosoRaptor” in March 2009. In slightly over a year, the band had distributed over 1000 copies of their EP and to very receptive audiences in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. The band had successfully left a positive impression on the local music scene, catching the attention of fans and listeners throughout the area. Since then, Kid Architect has been featured in a variety of local media outlets such as On Tap magazine, Washingtonian magazine’s online entertainment blog “After Hours”, the Arlington Examiner, as well as an interview and radio play on WEBR Fairfax Radio. Their combination of electric performances and high-energy music has provided the band with the perfect foundation upon which they continue to grow their fan base.
The band is currently in the studio recording their highly anticipated debut full-length album and expects The Great Pretend to be released in the fall of 2010.
