Kissing Party continues to portray the moments of small town life; finding yourself, finding others, making it through the day. The combination of airy, wistfully hopeful lyrics and jangly, crunchy guitars make for a perfect encapsulation of the DIY indie sound. This brand of endearing, authentic slop-pop is what Kissing Party is now known for, and dives back into with a new rush on their album\u00a0&#8216;Mom &amp; Dad&#8217;.<br>\u00a0<br><strong>More about Kissing Party?<\/strong><br>\u00a0<br>After prematurely booking his first show without actually having a band yet, Gregg Dolan only had thirty days to pull together the slop-pop band he had been dreaming about ever since he first saw Prince\u2019s\u00a0&#8216;Purple Rain&#8217;\u00a0at eight years old. Comprised of a rag-tag group of strangers, Dolan (vocals, guitar) says that Kissing Party met \u201cby fate.\u201d Singer Deidre Sage was recruited on the basis that <em>\u201cher name sounded cool,\u201d<\/em> their first guitarist, <em>\u201ca random guy who worked at the bank\u201d<\/em> was recruited because he\u00a0<em>owned<\/em>\u00a0a guitar, and drummer Shane Reid joined reluctantly despite having never heard any of Dolan\u2019s songs. The Denver based five-piece was complete once Joe Hansen replaced the banker on guitar, and Lee Evans added the bass.<br><br>After their first year in Denver\u2019s DIY scene, the group&#8217;s unique brand of self-described \u201cSlop Pop\u201d quickly cemented them as a local staple. Kissing Party\u2019s first release\u00a0&#8216;Rediscover Lovers&#8217;\u00a0came in at number three on The Denver Post\u2019s best albums list. After their Sophomore LP\u00a0&#8216;The Hate Album&#8217;\u00a0received attention from national outlets like Three Imaginary Girls and Filter, plus airplay from the likes of KEXP, they signed with local Denver label Hot Congress who released\u00a0<em>Wasters Wall<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Looking Back it was Romantic<\/em>,\u00a0<em>but at the Time I was Suffocating<\/em>\u00a0(which also received a limited tape release from Austin\u2019s Fleeting Youth Records) and Christmas album,\u00a0<em>Winter in the Pub<\/em>. In 2017 they released their most recent EP&#8211; and their last with Hot Congress&#8211; a split with labelmates Bleak Plaza.<br><br>Kissing Party\u2019s album\u00a0&#8216;Mom &amp; Dad&#8217;\u00a0serves as the inaugural release for the band&#8217;s own label, BBYV &#8212; a\u00a0 Kickstarter effort that pooled over $5000 from dedicated fans. Consisting of twelve, power-pop gems that range from boozy ballads to two-minute pop symphonies,\u00a0&#8216;Mom &amp; Dad&#8217;\u00a0feels, for Dolan, like a 31-minute opus&#8211;<em> \u201ceverything [he\u2019s] ever wanted to say in a record.\u201d <\/em>From Ohio basements to grey Pennsylvania days, these songs are an ode to suburban life, and extension and elevation of the band\u2019s scrappy, DIY, day-to-day&#8211; debt, regret, heartbreak, hair-dye, and all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/1d59aca4aeedaab429816159e\/images\/d7cb6588-5ff9-4def-a0c4-7136d8659c90.png?resize=358%2C360&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Kissing Party Mom &amp; Dad cover artwork\" width=\"358\" height=\"360\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Denver\u2019s trash-pop princesses\u00a0Kissing Party have\u00a0just released their new album,\u00a0&#8216;Mom &amp; Dad&#8217;.
