Kairos Band

The band have been working on something special, and are very happy to share this with you for free.

This is the strongest song the band has produced by far since 2007 when the band first formed, and they are pretty excited about it, so they should be.

Download the brand new single * HEART * from Monday 13th July right here at kairos-band.co.uk

The band have been working on a brand new song over the past few weeks, and are just about finished recording it. The song is called HEART and will be released as a free download in the next few weeks. So watch this space!

Wow, it’s been so long since we have posted anything in the news section, sorry about that!

The band flew to Ireland in October, and had a great time with the people there; they nearly didn’t make it due to the van breaking down on the way to the airport, thus missing the flight! But Paul came to the rescue with his big credit card and booked the 5 of the band, himself, the band’s sound engineer Mark G and 8 flight cases onto another Easy Jet flight. Thanks

This year so far has brought Kairos some great gigs, bringing almost double the gigs booked for 2009 so far (and dates still getting added) compared to 2008, which I guess is a good thing! The band also did their very first acoustic set in a local bar/restaurant in Norwich at the beginning of the year and found out that they didn’t do too bad at all. There was a great response from the crowd and organisers, so I think it’s something you’ll see Kairos doing again.

We are pleased to be a part of Big Church Day Out, and have some London dates booked which will be a first for the band. So check out where Kairos is going to be gigging, it could be near you.

Kairos received a great review from Paul S Ganney from Cross Rhythms:

This six-track CD grows on you as it progresses. By the end of the first track (“Break The Cycle”) you find you’re listening to it far more than you thought you would when it started. Why is this? I’m not really sure – it could be the pop of the rock, or the rock in the pop, maybe the vocals start to get through, maybe the lyrics start to make sense (and they make more sense than several things I’ve heard this year) and when the title track fires in it’s with a pure ’80s synth hook, except it’s sung. Throughout, it’s solid guitars, clear vocals, unfussy drumming, uncluttered background fills, well constructed songs and then a bit more. If you like the idea of power pop new wave post-punk (Eh? Editor) brought up to date with the occasional Beatles-ish melody line, then you’ll like this.

Kairos now has been a band for 18 months, and it has been a great first 18 months. We’ve had some roller coaster gigs, some of them have been great, some not so great, but we have loved the journey and experience so far. We are only just beginning.

So now, we are very pleased to announce that we have added to the band. Please welcome Mr Jonatas Neves on keys. Wow that nearly rhymes! Jonatas is originally from Portugal (oh we love the Portuguese!!) and he’s in his early twenties. But, it doesn’t end there.

Mr Matt Buck, who has been the KAIROS drummer since we started last year, is moving with his wife away to the Leeds area, and will be greatly missed by the rest of us. Thanks Matt for putting in the hard work over the past 18 months, you’ve helped us get off to a great start.

So who is the new drummer then? Well, believe it or not our new Mr Jonatas Neves on keys didn’t pop out of the oven by himself, he was closely followed by his twin brother. Please welcome Mr Jon Neves on drums.

We have known these two lads for the past few years since they moved to Norwich from Portugal almost 7 years ago. They are great guys to be around, great hearts and great attitudes. The perfect ingredients for building a great band.

So here’s to the next 18 months, what a journey it will be. It’s still only just beginning.

Aaron, Tim, Mark, Jon and Jonatas.
