Band Story
The Kind: Miami’s Genre-Bending Rock Alchemists Return with "Visit Yourself"
From the sun-drenched streets of Miami comes The Kind—an all-original rock ’n roll outfit with a sound that refuses to be boxed in. Produced and published by Richard Lebos, the band fuses the pulse of funk, the soul of blues, the bounce of ska, the sophistication of jazz, and even a subtle nod to country—delivering a synergy that’s unmistakably The Kind.
Dynamic, eclectic, and charged with energy, their songs don’t just hit—they resonate. From smoky club stages to soundtrack syncs, their catalog is both versatile and deeply original, capturing the spirit of rock while flirting with every genre under the sun.
Now with the release of their third and most anticipated album, Visit Yourself, The Kind adds 12 fresh tracks to their already vibrant discography. It’s not just an album—it’s an invitation. One that asks listeners to turn inward while turning the volume up. Each track builds on the storytelling, groove, and musical craftsmanship that have become hallmarks of the band’s evolving sound.
Their previous releases, Plant the Seed and Waiting on the Harvest, didn’t just make waves in the indie rock world—they found a second life in TV and film. All 25 songs from those two records have been tapped as advertising cues, proving that The Kind doesn’t just write songs—they create moments. Their music is cinematic, evocative, and loaded with the kind of hooks that directors, producers, and music supervisors crave.
Whether you're discovering them for the first time or diving into Visit Yourself, The Kind delivers a musical journey that’s as diverse as it is cohesive—rooted in rock, but always reaching for more. With three records in the vault and a growing influence across media, The Kind is more than a band—they’re a movement, carving their own path through the soundscape of modern music.
