The monkeys over at Usermonkey design and development house (new home of our long time designer Casey) have been busy developing the new site you are now enjoying. The new site features a design that focuses on giving visitors instant access to the content that matters to them - photos, videos and music. Be sure to check out some of the new features:

Photos - Photo galleries that bring the convenience of flickr to KOWH’s home.

Video - Instant access to KOWH videos from YouTube.

Blog - A news/blog system (that you are now reading) that will allow us to provide more frequent news and updates.

The site will be in transition as we work out the kinks and introduce new features in the coming weeks, so please bear with us.

Thanks for visiting, and be sure to pick up a souvenir in the store.

Yes, that’s right: your favorite indie rock band is about to embark on their first-ever tour up the West Coast.

We will be hitting all the best stops along the way, starting at one of our favorite venues, Mr. T’s Bowl in Los Angeles, and heading up, appropriately enough, on July 4th to Santa Barbara where we will be kick-starting the tour.

After Santa Barbara, it’s off to San Luis Obispo, Salinas and Monterey, San Francisco and Berkeley, Humboldt County (where Peewee is sure to have a smokin’ time), Eugene and Portland, Olympia, and, finally, Seattle!

In addition to playing a very special acoustic set at each venue, we’re also showcasing our films, writings, artwork, and wares from the new clothing line.

And, of course, we also plan on having the best time of our lives, making short films and music videos, meeting new people, seeing new places, and spreading the gospel of the Kids to those who have never before had a chance to see us live.

Any press inquiries, please direct to Jessica Kane at Feinstein/McGuiness PR.

We hope to see you there…!
