Kingsley Flood

Kingsley Flood is a Boston and Washington, DC based six-piece band.  They have two full-length albums out, Dust Windows, and Battles along with an EP.  Battles was released fairly recently, on February 5, 2013, but I just discovered these guys when looking at the 9:30 Club schedule.  They're currently touring with the David Wax Museum.  As is the usual case when I go in depth on a group, this band is unsigned.

This is a list of their band members and instruments taken directly from their website:

• Naseem Khuri: vocals, rhythm guitar
• Jenée Morgan: violin, saxophone, vocals
• Chris Barrett: trumpet, keys, percussion, vocals
• George Hall: lead guitar, vocals
• Nick Balkin: bass, vocals
• Travis Richter: drums, percussion

As you can see, they include a violin, saxophone, and trumpet.  These add a depth to their music not found in most indie rock groups.  I've been very impressed with all of their music so far.
"I Don't Wanna Go Home" from Dust Windows gives an idea of what the saxophone adds to their music, but "Waiting On the River to Rise" is one of my favorites along with "Sun Gonna Lemme Shine." I'm having a hard time putting Kingsley Flood into a specific genre, it seems to be mainly an indie rock with some folk and even some hints of country. ITunes puts them simply in the genre of rock, but come on now that's not very descriptive!

Their website is pretty cool, and you can join the Fan List here! There's a link under "The Great & Unsigned" on the right that takes you directly to their official website.
