We are a rock band that doesn't scream or yell or bi*** about things. We like to rock. We play some funky rock and/or roll with some drums, some guitar, some bass and a guy who sings words and such.
Why this name?
It's funny. It gets noticed. Plus there was this kid who just wouldn't shut up....
Do you play live?
We play live wherever anyone will have us! We LOVE to play live and our favorite place to play is Toad's Place in New Haven, CT.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet has made music more accessible and more interesting. We may never have heard of a small band from Osh Kosh without it, because they would not be on the radio or TV.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes.
Band History:
A melding of rock guitars, funky drum beats and an array of vocal stylings comprises Slap That Kid...an eclectic rock band out of Connecticut. Formed over 2 years ago, the band has made a name for themselves throughout the state, amassing a huge mailing list, and playing frequently at local bars and clubs.
The band placed third in the "best band" category in the Fairfield County Weekly Newspaper's "Best of " voting in 2002. They also earned a third place finish in the annual "Battle of the Bands" - a 12 band competition held every summer at "Skybox," a popular venue for live music. Recently, Slap That Kid performed at the first annual CT Rock Awards held at the Webster Theater in Hartford, CT and was runner-up for the People's Choice Award. In addition, Slap That Kid performs regularly at a number of local hot spots like Toad's Place in New Haven, and the Playwright in both Stamford, CT and New Haven, CT.
