Gray Kid offers free download of Happy Feet

October 18, 2007 Kevin 1 Comment

For as much as I’ve talked about the Gray Kid before, I’m remiss in that I’ve neglected to mention his latest release, Vultures, released earlier this summer. The album was inspired by the Kid reading Phaedra’s Love, a play by Sarah Kane. What I really wanted to do was read the play before I posted … Continue reading Gray Kid offers free download of Happy Feet →

Well, the Kid … Continue reading Gray Kid premiere: PaxilBack (Worryin’ Weity Mix) →

February 8, 2007 Kevin 3 Comments

The prolific Gray Kid has posted a couple new jams on his MySpace page (streams). I’m already particularly fond of Soothsayer — check the funky, 80s-esque synth line. Oooooh! The man who signs his checks as Steve Cooper also is playing a slew of dates at SxSW, which I will not be attending. Boo. Onward … Continue reading New tunes at Gray Kid’s MySpace →

He’s a rapper and a soul enthusiast, evident in the track Lonely Love. He goes … Continue reading The Gray Kid feat. My Brightest Diamond: “Bang” →
