BAND HISTORY
the story so far: The long-time school friends first hooked up musically in early 2005, aged 14-15. Starting off with Jimi Hendrix songs and bending them into their own developing style. By early 2007, their talent and relentless gigging schedule were paying off. A management deal came their way and the band became "Kinch". They signed to London-based indie label Halo UK Records in April 2008. Their debut single was released on October 13 and reached Number 7 in the UK Indies Singles Chart. Kinch have now set their sights on securing world peace and drinking lots of tea. Watch this space.
