NOVEMBER 29 - JIMKATA RETURNS TO THE KING'S ROOK CLUB!!!
Jimkata - Jimkata is onto an entirely new era on stage. Once again a quartet, the band has taken their electro-rock sound to a new level with a brand new album, Running in Place and dynamic live performances. Described as “A hard hitting dance party with soaring guitar riffs and soul tickling lyrics,” Jimkata takes you on an emotional joyride before tucking you gently in to bed, still humming the words.
With a life long friendship at it’s core friends since middle school, Evan Friedell, Aaron Gorsch and Packy Lunn infuse Jimkata, with an adventurous musical streak & relatable lyrical themes. Adding Cooper Casterline into the mix holding down the low end has allowed the band to stretch the music out in a live setting. The band has built a loyal audience for their relentlessly feel-good performances, which grew from local house parties to club, theater, and festival dates on the strength of a series of critically acclaimed albums. Popdose hailed the band’s “bubbly sweetness,” while American Songwriter praised their “organic chemistry,” and Relix raved that the trio’s sound “proves that rock-based music still has a place in the world of four-on-the-floor beats.
On the heels of their newest studio album “Running in Place” which released in Oct 2024 the band once again exemplifies why they’re the best at what they do and why so many have fallen in love with their songs and energetic live shows.
