Help Justin!!!

ktsymphony — Thu, 07 Feb 2013 20:00:15 +0000

Justin(SAH) in the U.P. 3.31.07

Our labelmate(SAH) and good friend Justin was involved in a serious car accident that happened early Sunday morning. Justin was traveling with his two best friends, his Jack Russells Dory and Lola, when he was involved in a roll-over accid…ent. Lola was ejected from the vehicle and tragically, was spooked, ran onto the highway and was killed by a semi. Dory was ok. Justin is currently hospitalized with a long way to a full recovery. Among the material items lost was Justin’s self custom-made wheel chair. It would mean more than you know if you could make a donation of $1 or more to help Justin with medical bills, vet bills, lost wages, supplies for making another custom wheelchair, etc. Please share this link to get as many views as possible. Thank you.

Out with the old..in with the New Split Release!!!

ktsymphony — Fri, 21 Dec 2012 20:28:16 +0000

First off, we would like to say thanks to everyone that helped us out with tour. It’s long overdue but I’m sure we covered our bases on Facebook one way or another. Its so amazing to be able to travel the country and meet so many interesting down to earth cool folks playing some of the best music out there. That’s what makes touring so great; the people, the music, the sights! Since we’ve returned, we were able to release our new Split EP with our friends Swear Jar and celebrated with new friends The Shanks form Toronto via Mad Anthony. Thanks so much to those guys for helping out and we’re so glad they were able to return to Cincy to play the release show! Speaking of Mad Anthony…those guys are touring machines!!!! To commemorate our little tour that was filled great shows, long drives, border patrol, car sickness and a little sight seeing; Jerry made a little tour diary video.

KtS split with Swear Jar

We’re looking forward to getting out in 2013, stay tuned for upcoming shows, news and whatever else comes your way. Happy and safe Holidays for everyone. We look forward to meeting and seeing you!
