A show about life and the stories we tell. How are pop-culture zombies like Haitian zombis? When did time-travel fiction start? Why are we so fascinated with ghost stories? Join Lauren, Emily, and Matt as they use anthropology, history, sibling rivalry, and pop culture to dig deep into the themes of narratives in film, literature, video games, and life.

Four longtime friends from North Carolina, the members of KDH have been playing in groups together on and off for the last ten years.  They came together in NYC in 2010 and reconncected over hallowed love for rock and roll songwriting. They are often referred to as “Kill Devil Hills”, which is a small coastal town on the Outer Banks of NC.

In the fall of 2014, the quartet gathered at a Manhattan studio to record an album on a refurbished 1” tape machine.  With a nod to true grit methods of the past, the group layer down 9 live tracks which would become their upcoming release, Piedmont Rose.  The songs exhibit the KDH’s upbringing in the south as well and their time so far in the city.  Guitarists Drew Taylor and Ian Lockey practice the ancient art of weaving, trading shifts on who’s working the lead and holding down the rhythm.  The no-bullstuff rhythm section of bassist Alex Smith and drummer Lee Hinshaw’s long time friendship proves just how tight things can get.  All the while, the hypnotic vocal arrangements rest on top of the sound like gravy on biscuits.  With a wide array of genres and artists that could be cited as influences, KDH has worked to translate their ideas into a sound of its own but with much respect for the past.

Rogue Band of Youth is the collective output of Jimmy P, Chloe G, Triple D, and Yak. With the live and studio support of a rotating cast of area musicians they craft mercurial music that is by turns summery, somber, controlled, and... then they got really obsessed with monsters and myths and their music took a turn for the chaotic. 

Essentially this is a band of recovering folkaholics who just figured out that fuzz pedals are really quite cool. But here are some quotes from really nice people about what we used to sound like.

"For what you could call folk-rock, this isn't calm or soothing. At moments, it's frankly anxious and frazzled. But Rogue Band of Youth pulls that off without necessarily getting loud, adding another surprise element of tension to these tunes." -INDY WEEK, Corbie Hill 

"...with pastoral vibes and enough angles to keep things interesting, Rogue Band of Youth should be on your to-hear list." Independent Clauses

"This focused trio of Carrboro based musicians have been writing songs together since 2012, but even the impressive work on their previous EPs can't compare to the deft songwriting on display on Rogue Band of Youth. Tracks are contextualized with subtle field recordings that give an air of a warm southern days, tight harmonies give way to powerful melodies that soar atop a bed of delicate acoustic instrumentation." The Bottom String, Grant Golden
