Artist History
It started on a rainy day in Joel's basement. There sat the original members, Joel, Jamie, Chad, Darren, and Jason, bored out of their skulls in a small mountain town called Trail. They decided to give themselves something to do by starting a musical group called Gorge.
None of the above had any musical background so instruments were picked
at random. After many 12 hour jams the band finally had
enough Nirvana covers down that they could play shows
at the local highschool. A year or so past and Jamie,
Joel, and Chad decided to part and form an original
band. This is when the highly skilled guitarist,
Eric, joined the band and the name was changed to
Kid Apprehensive. After writing enough material to
be called a set the band took to the road. Three
western Canadian tours were completed and the
band found themselves opening for international
touring acts such as, Good Riddance, Death by
Stereo, the Weakerthans, Gob, and others along
those lines! Then the band decided to relocate to
Edmonton, Alberta for reasons they are still not
sure of. Another tour was completed and Eric
split to Montreal to hunt French fox, he is
always welcome back! The band has since been
writing new material for their yet to be titled
full length due out this summer! |

Press Reviews
KID APPREHENSIVE
I'm starting to get a lot of respect for the
Canadian punk scene I just got hold of this CD
and there is a lot of potential here. They have
a punk sound that is missing in a lot of upcoming
bands these days, the song MAI will probably be
on our comp as soon as I get more info on this
band I'll let you know!

KID APPREHENSIVE
After hearing this bands five song demo I have to
say that Canadian music is about to get much
stronger! They show a lot of substance, which is
missing in most of todays bands. Their sound is
unique but could be compared to Good Riddance,
Weezer and, at times AFI. These guys definitely
know what’s up and will have good staying power.
If you happen to get a chance to check these guys
out make sure you do so!
