Reign of Kindo aren’t particularly metal, but they sure do have the crossover appeal with their melodic jazz-rock sound. The band were personally tapped by Scale the Summit for tour support, and if I’m not mistaken, they’ve been name-dropped by Periphery‘s Misha Mansoor in the past. Basically, if you like soulful vocals and jazz fusion, Reign of Kindo are a band you should have been obsessed with ages ago.
As a jazz-oriented act, it’s a no-brainer that the band are destined to be a stellar live act.
