Details
Country PUNK. Real People. Real Stories. Real Music.
One toke more Country than Violent Femmes. One hit more Punk than June Carter and Johnny Cash. Just a dab lower-rent than Guided by Voices.
Kimmie & Johnny are a Bloomington, Indiana-based, song-writing Country Punk band.
Kimmie is a former Jesus Freak and cult member. Johnny is a defrocked therapist -- and cult member. Four years ago we were homeless on Bloomington’s streets. Thanks to music, today we're not.
We've toured regionally for 4 years, playing Melody Inn, Indianapolis; Bluebird, Max's Place, Players Pub, many Bloomington clubs; Phoenix Hill & Third Street Dive, Louisville; many others. We are auditioning for Debi Champion at the Commodore Grille Nashville. Our music is in rotation on Indiana's WFHB, WBIW, WQRK, Florida's WSLR Florida, others.
As a tight duo or trio, we fuse elements of country, punk, rockabilly, folk, R&B. With an in-your-face-attitude, slightly lubricated with subversive sentimentality.
Our strengths are lyrics and musicianship. Sometimes funny. Sometimes raw. Sometimes beautiful. Depends on the day.
"Musicians Kimmie & Johnny..., the rowdy husband-and-wife duo, who met in Bloomington's homeless community, are becoming one of that college town's hottest acts." -- Sarah Zinn, Indianapolis Monthly
"Kimmie F'n Green Eyez & Johnny Profane belted out songs about trailer life and police run-ins. The audience, ranging from students to retirees and filling every table, cheered them on. I love it when we get acts and you're like, Who the hell are these guys? Then you get some really great stuff and everyone's rooting for them." -- Bloom MagazinePh: 812 325 7193
