latest news

2010 rolls right along, and KFAD's got some good things coming up!  First, we'll be returning to the Old Curtis Street Bar on April 2. We'll share details as to the oher bands playing as soon as we have them!  Then, on May 7, we once again share the D-Note stage with our wonderful friends the New Ben Franklins and the Dave Boylan Band!  If you were there the last time, you know what a rocking night it was...and this one is set to beat it!  Why?  Because it will also provide for the release of our new CD, The Light Is On and Shining Brightly For the Masses!!!  Come pick one up for a special night-of-release price!

Thanks to all of you who were able to make it out to the 16th annual Maxfund Chili Cook-off.  Maxfund does some great work in assistance of our best friends - pets!  All of us in KFAD are big animal lovers, and we were honored to help out this important cause - apparently they raised over $5000 and were able to adopt out some VERY cute doggies!  Hopefully we can help out agan in the future!

Well, the final mixing has been completed, and the release of our latest EP The Light Is On and Shining Brightly For the Masses is near!  The songs were recorded with our friend Bryan at Uneven Studio, and we are very happy with the way they turned out - we hope you will be, too!  The CD release party details will be shared once we nail them down, but trust us, the show will be more than worth it!

Head on over to our Facebook page and please become a fan – there will be some great exclusive stuff on the page in the future! Also send us an e-mail with your mailing address, and we'll send you a limited edition, Facebook exclusive, best-of KFAD CD!  There are only a few numbered copies left - so get yours soon! UPDATE: there are only TWO copies left - first come, first served!

Second, from now until March 31, 2010 , all merchandise at our online store is priced at 25% off regular price! Now’s the time to complete your KFAD CD collection at a super low price – or pick one up for a friend and tell them it cost a lot more… Supplies on some discs are somewhat limited, so pick ‘em up now – and remember, shipping to the continental US is included in the price! Plus, every order gets a free sticker and button, AND a copy of the Bolder Boulder compilation on which we were featured (as supplies last). That’s a lot of cool stuff for just a tiny bit o’money! In addition, we are accepting pre-orders for The Light Is On and Shining Brightly For the Masses at a special low price of $5.00 – it will be shipped just as soon as we have them in our grubby little hands.

YeeHaw! Country KFAD!
"One Fine Day" appeared on Pure 107.8 FM in Manchester on the Play Something Country show hosted by Pete Levene on October 18th 2009.

2009 was quite a year…a new album release...our 5th Anniversary show at the Waterloo…our Loveland debut…slots at the Bolder Boulder, Capitol Hill People’s Fair and the Denver Post Underground Music Showcase…playing to help support the American Heart Association…a whole bunch of radio play…an appearance on Channel 2 the Deuce…an awesome show with old friends at the D-Note... and the beginning of our latest recording project! Thanks to all of you who have joined us for this incredible year - we love you and hope to see a lot more of you all in 2010!

You can watch us perform “Rise Above It All” on the Deuce HERE. We hope to have our second song, “Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before” posted on this page soon. We just need to figure out how to do that… And if you haven’t seen it yet, HERE is our performance of “Here Comes Summer” on Channel 4 from July of last year.

Check out Colorado Music Buzz's great review of the new KFAD LP, Ghost In The Slipstream here! Look under CD reviews - Alternative. Thanks Doug!

Dave at 101.5 FMs Mile Hi-Fidelity show played "Hold On Tight" in a show dedicated to his favorites of the year thus far!  Thanks Dave -  your show is one of our fave listens, as well!

One million thanks to Jake Schroeder, who played no fewer than SIX tracks from Ghost In The Slipstream! His Mountain Homegrown Music Show on 99.5 The Mountain is truly an incredible listen each and every week - the time, effort and love he puts into it really shows, and we are honored to have him give KFAD such attention (as well as some VERY kind words). We can't wait to take him up on his offer to play in the studio - we'll let you know ASAP once details are finalized. Thanks Jake!

Thanks to KBCO, who played “Rise Above it All”, which is the lead-off music track on this years Bolder Boulder Bootleg CD compilation!

While we're handing out thanks, here are some for Goat and his Colorado Sound radio show! Goat played "Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before" from Ghost In The Slipstream. You can hear the show Saturdays at 5 PM on KRFC 88.9 FM in Fort Collins and 8 PM on KMPB 90.3 & 100.3 FM in Dillon and Silverthorne, as well as Sunday at 4 PM on KBUT 90.3 FM in Crested Butte, 89.9 FM in Gunnison and 94.9 FM in Almont. Thanks Goat!

If you enjoy a good whiskey (and who doesn’t?), try some Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey, distilled right here in Denver. And when you inevitably love it enough to buy yourself a bottle, look closely at the label – there is a limited run of customized KFAD labels out there…somewhere! We have no idea where they were distributed, and unfortunately weren’t able to snag a bottle for ourselves before they shipped, so if you see one and are willing to part with it, please let us know and we might be interested in making an offer. Or, best case scenario – let us know and we can all meet up and empty it together!

 

Note to everyone - due to some serious issues with the way SNOCAP runs their business (or doesn't...), all downloads are unavailable until we find an honest, competent company with which to work. We apologize for any inconvenience, and hope to remedy the situation very soon.

Simon has written a book!  Well, he’s always written loads o’lyrics – all of ours, for instance – and he’s compiled them into a lovely volume, along with pictures and original artwork.  Perfect for the KFAD collector and lyric lover alike!  Preview before you buy here.
