John Morgan Kimock: Depiction

John Morgan Kimock

John Morgan Kimock (son of Steve Kimock) has put the finishing touches on his first solo album entitled Depiction. The new album, produced entirely by the 18-year-old drum prodigy, is now available only on John Morgan’s Kind Killers MySpace site. The release features a number of special guest musicians including Jim Kost, Steve Kimock, Paul Thiessen and Angelo Miraglia. With a number of up-coming shows, the young Kimock will be performing tracks from Depiction while also unveiling his new project Kind Killers with Angelo Miraglia and special guests. <> Written and produced entirely by Kimock, Depiction highlights a seven track instrumental journey into sound and has one major element of surprise: there is only one track with drums. Instead the debut is filled with layers of keyboard samples and sounds played or sampled by the versatile musician and respective guests.

A self-taught drummer from Northeastern Pennsylvania John Morgan Kimock pairs naturally with keyboard player Angelo Miraglia – a musician he has been playing with since childhood. Together the duo has been working behind the scenes at venues across the country (in tow with SKB and ZERO) while learning the ropes of touring and the craft of writing intelligent music. Together, the side project will offer a large scope of instrumental material while incorporating the latest in live mixing technology.

The Kind Killers cinematic approach to instrumental composition reflects their love for good cheer and evokes passionate moods that will leave you wanting more of a feeling “you can’t explain.” The band sites influences that range from The Books, Steve Kimock, Lymbyc Systym, among others – however on first listen you can hear a more youthful, yet refined presence in the music that lends to a fresh sound and style that is all their own.
