KINGS KALEIDOSCOPE & RUNAWAY SYMPHONY
K I N G S K
Seattle-based Kings Kaleidoscope uses an eclectic range of modern, woodwind, string and brass instruments for a colorful, stylistic harmony that stands greater than the sum of its parts. The combination of electronic and analog soundscapes is a love letter to Motown and math rock, with illustrative lyricism that runs the gamut of haunting, uplifting, and resolved. Singer/songwriter Chad Gardner carries these lyrics with a soulful treatment that compliments calculated drum work to create a balance between groove and mathematics. Tracks are peppered with electronics and sampling that call to The Bridge Wars era of hip hop, all the while bringing a refreshing stamina that breathes life into these timeless constructs. KKs trademark voice is their ever-growing accent across their 5 EPs, critically acclaimed LP, Becoming Who We Are and daring sophomore LP "Beyond Control." From humble beginnings they've triumphed over many trials and personal tragedies, mainly stemming from lead singer Chad Gardner's personal life. Garnering attention since 2010, this collective is known for their musical and lyrical call for cosmic reflection.

Vivid story-telling, coupled with interweaving instrumentation and rich harmonies, Runaway Symphony falls in line with the best of folk songwriting. Runaway Symphonys songs have been described as haunting, moving, dynamic, and melodic. Song after song, the group manages to strike a personal connection with listeners through songwriting that exudes an intimate and heart-wrenching honesty.
Their self-produced 2013 debut album, Running South, was met with unforeseen and widespread acceptance garnering an immediately devoted fan-base. In 2016, the band went on to independently produce and distribute their sophomore album, American Blood, which propelled and solidified their place with fans at both a personal place and at a national level.
Runaway Symphony has shared the stage with Colbie Caillat, Eric Hutchinson, Sally Ford, Joe Pug, and is featured in Warner Bros 2017 feature-film starring Owen Wilson, Ed Helms, and Glenn Close.
