Your Kisses Cause Crashes (Austin, Texas) had its genesis in 2003 as a two-piece experimental act consisting of Michelle Jones and Andy Kaminski. The two spent the summer writing and recording various low-fi songs on 4 tracks. A sudden relocation left the progress on a plateau for five years, but in April 2008 the two paired up again to give new life to the old arrangements and promote their creation as a serious act.
With the additions of Richard Carta on drums and Michael Tucker on bass, YKCC evolved into a complete band with an epic atmosphere of powerful and dream-like melodic productions comparable to Built to Spill, Grandaddy, and Pavement. The group released Whatev (Non-signed, 2008), a radiant movement of layered keyboards, synthesizers, guitars, and vigorous percussion and burst onto the Austin scene, playing numerous stages downtown and on SoCo and sharing billing with many of its favorite local and touring acts, including The Black Angels, Johnny Gobbs, and Avenging Poor Yorick.
With plans to record and release a full-length album in fall 2008, the group is racing to keep pace with the flow of new songs and new booking requests. YKCC continues to hone its sound and style as it gears up for a tour to support its forthcoming debut album.
SO Anders i know you're uber-mad at me for missing both the show AND the party but the show was a Sunday night and I didnt have a sitter and my dad was in town staying with me last Saturday night so I couldnt go to the partay then either.... I don't know if i can make the Wednesday night at 11pm show, but i promise that the next reasonable time there's a show, I WILL BE THERE. His dad owes me a sitter night so I'll make it that night even if it's a weekday (except 11pm, lol). I'm so sorry and i love ya bunchessss!
