This is Kim, and I'm Matt, and we're a band called Matt & Kim.
For what we're about, I'd say we're just about having a *** shaking dance party,
pretty much.
As far as genre goes, I'd say, like, indie dance, it's
what we've said online.
I mean, when we were both at Pratt, I was there for film and Kim was there for illustration, and
when we started this band, Kim had never played drums before, and I had, I had never played
keyboards before.
We struggled for a long time, but we're two people that work well together and
sometimes it's easier to find someone you work well with
rather than someone who's good at what they do.
And then we could figure, we could become good at what we do.
It's tougher to
become good at working together.
I think we're naturals at
songwriting and performing, and I think that's what this band is all about.
We're not like so
overly educated on the subject, but
we do what we do just how it needs to be done.
This year, in January
we locked ourselves in
our apartment in Brooklyn, and started recording lightning. It was nice to one
record in Brooklyn, which we hadn't done yet,
but i think that's the great thing, is that we had the ability
to make exactly what we wanted here.
And then we listened to it over and over again.
It's not just a coincidence that our name is Matt & Kim,
it's that we do want to be on a first-name basis
with like everyone who likes our band, and Matt & Kim
shows, which we're really known for, is about everybody in that room,
it's not just about the two of us.
So, there it's such an important part of our band, is the
people who come out and like our music.
