Okay guys… it’s official… we are a little tired of our current live show. Dancing Boltronix and little boy eating cereal videos, we love you…really we do… we’ve had a lot of fun together… but it’s time to step things up a few notches, put on our thinking caps, and push our creative limits.  IT’S TIME TO BUILD AN ENTIRELY NEW LIVE SHOW! We’ll call it: KMC 2.0!

Truth is, we have actually already been hard at work on this new live show for a while now. Over the past few months, we (and our fancy filmmaker friends) have been scheming up some crazy ideas for a new projector-powered video triggering live show extravaganza!  We’re talking about a completely new format here with all new videos, new transitions, and new songs!

Explaining this new concept in writing just doesn’t do it justice… so we made this nice little video:

Things really are usually easier said than done though. We recently hit a road-block…. we can’t build our new live show concept around our current projector. It just doesn’t work… and we are too poor to buy a new better-suited one. There is a glimmer of hope left though…

Kid Meets Cougar was just officially approved to start our own Kickstarter Project! Haven’t heard of Kickstarter.com? Basically, Kickstarter is a “grass-roots” fund raising website built to help creative projects become a reality. Right up our alley.

Our Kickstarter page will give you ALL of the details on our “New Live Show” fund raising project but in a nut shell:

We would like to raise $6,000 to buy a new projector, make new “live visual” videos, and create a brand new mind-blowing live show!

Whadaya say buddy? Could you spare a dime for a Kid and a Cougar? If so, head on over HERE.

You won’t walk away empty-handed though! We have a ton of neat rewards you can claim with your donation.  Here are just a few (pictures coming soon):

• A special KMC Paper Airplane and Helicopter Set
• Digital Downloads and physical copies of our debut album, “For Breakfast”

“One of the best little bands in Las Vegas” – Whitney Pastorek, Entertainment Weekly

“Kid Meets Cougar are the furthest thing from the flashing-light glitter of the Vegas Strip, and their DIY aesthetic and irresistibly adorable electronic-fed indie pop has the two set as indie rock’s next buzz couple.” – Best New Band in Nevada 2010, 50 Bands in 50 States Summer Feature. – The Boston Phoenix

“The ideal combination of humility, vulnerability, melody — and grooves that make you wanna wiggle — is hard to achieve, but Las Vegas’ Kid Meets Cougar is on the right track. The band’s songs also branch off from cute: some go all raw-and-screamy, while others get oblique ‘n’ funky. Expect earworm choruses and pristine harmonies — and expect this band to go somewhere.” -Ian S. Port,The SF Weekly

“For Carroll and Bolton, a real-life couple who make up the electro-pop duo Kid Meets Cougar, the do-it-yourself ethic isn’t the usual artistic dogma, but what gives their act its charm and uniqueness — and KMC has charm and uniqueness in spades. It’s why their enthusiastically delivered live performances have become talk of the downtown music scene. It’s why people stare so attentively at their stage set-up, an complicated network of hardware and instrumentation that somehow produces such humanistic bliss. It’s why they can talk talented local filmmakers like Jeremy Cloe and Mike Thompson… into producing accompanying shorts for their live show. And it’s why, even in a year already crowded with local releases, For Breakfast is one of the best Vegas albums of 2009.” – Mike Prevatt, Las Vegas City Life

“Best Local Band” 2010 – The Rebel Yell

“So it’s just after 10 on a Friday night. You park, stroll up to the Bunkhouse, open the door and catch sight of … a dude in a Viking helmet holding a guitar and rapping? A chick in a wife-beater with fake tattoos running up both arms, banging on drums … and rapping? The video for Dr. Dre’s “Nuthin’ But a ‘G’ Thang”—the song the duo is covering in semi-serious fashion—rolling onscreen in the background? You’ve just witnessed Kid Meets Cougar. And yeah, that really happened.” – Laura Davis, The Las Vegas Weekly

“Kid Meets Cougar’s indie dance pop is a hit among robots and hipsters alike” – Jason Bracelin, Las Vegas Review Journal
