  • Black Kids side project! Gospel Music!

    As you may have heard, our bass player Owen has a solo record coming out, and we love it! He calls himself Gospel Music ("Owen" was taken), and the EP, "duettes," out on Fierce Panda on Nov. 29, features guest singers from the likes of Camera Obscura, the Magnetic Fields and Vivian Girls. Here's the video for lead single "Automobile," which was shot in and around our hometown of Jacksonville, Florida. Enjoy!
