Indie Guestlist Recommends ... Matt & Kim
Thursday 27th October 2011 | Osh
Brooklyn’s indie pop mischief-makers will get you up and dancing like you think no one’s watching. Singer Matt Johnson and drummer Kim Schifino met in college and have been making catchy infectious indie mixed with bubble gum pop crossed over with old school hip hop since 2005, their debut album Matt & Kim was released in 2006. Their second and third albums, Grand and Sidewalks catapulted the fun loving duo into the mainstream with songs being used in Barcadi commercials, NBC’s Community and Chuck, HBO’s Entourage and Channel 4’s Skins, so if you think you haven’t heard them before, you probably have.
Not only creative in their musical approach, their videos have made a name for themselves. The video for ‘Lesson Learned’, where they stripped naked and ran through New York City’s Time Square, won them an MTV Video Music Award for Best Breakthrough Video.
Matt & Kim switch up what you thought you knew about punk, indie, pop and hip hop, but mainly they focus on making happy songs for happy people.
