KIDS is an alt indie rock band from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Its members—Matthew

Barrios, Joshua Diaz, Christian Gonzalez, Josiah Sampson and Andrew Woomer—

are unified by one simple motive: stay true to yourself. There’s a Picasso quote—

“All children are artists, the problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up”

—they use to fuel that motive; it’s a reminder to always be anchored in authenticity.

First artists, then storytellers, KIDS uses cinematic instrumentation as a vehicle for

their storytelling. Sweeping soundscapes and epic brass sections play to their

eager and animated nature while showcasing their sophisticated musicianship. A

self-expressed band of “sad boys,” KIDS sings songs of love and loss through a

lens of escape and imagination.

Since their conception in 2012, KIDS released a full length record in 2015 and

plans to release their next project on Tooth & Nail Records in 2020.
