The Kickdrums is a band and production moniker for Alex Fitts, originally from Cleveland, OH.
The Kickdrums[edit]
Indie rock singer/songwriter Alex Fitts started off as a Cleveland-based producer, working with local hip-hop acts but took off when his music caught the ears of big-name rappers looking for production that blended hip-hop and indie rock styles. He and his production partner Matt Penttila found work with artists like 50 Cent, John Legend, and Kid Cudi, and did remixing for Kanye West, Adele, Ben Harper, and Peter Bjorn and John.[1]
At the same time, the duo began working on their own hybrid of indie rock and hip-hop, releasing an EP titled Just a Game in 2009, and continued with a full-length album titled Meet Your Ghost in 2011.[2]
Penttila left the band after this release and Fitts struck out on his own, turning The Kickdrums into a one-man band and trading in any vestiges of hip-hop for electronic-tinged singer/songwriter-influenced indie rock. After signing with Hopeless Records, an EP titled Still Logic was released in July 2013, followed by an album titled Thinking Out Loud in October of that year.[3]
Alex Fitts is also currently a part of two projects called Shiny Wet Machine[4] and Fake Guns.[5]
