Album #2:
Feeling Blue With You

The Kind Hills' second album "Feeling Blue With You" features 12 relaxing and catchy indie pop tunes. Many of the songs are subtly inspired by Australia, and they run the emotional gamut—from thoughtful, serious, and a little melancholic, to straight-up happy and downright silly. Their songs are a light-hearted take on the everyday joys and challenges of life. The Kind Hills don’t take themselves too seriously, and that’s probably their best advice for life in general.

Whether you're after simple, gentle tunes to enjoy a good time, unobtrusive background music, or something to lull you into a peaceful nap, "Feeling Blue With You" is the perfect soundtrack for all of it. If you were wondering, the beautiful model gracing the album cover is none other than a potato cod fish, an Australian native.

"The Blue Album", as the band jokingly refers to, consists of songs that were released monthly over the last year, as well as the brand new track "Don't Let The Darkness Steal Your Light".

The Band

This international band of slackers plays laid-back, sleepy indie pop that is catchy and oftentimes humorous—well, at least they think it is. The masterminds behind the band—Bea, Jess, Chase, Martin, and Roman—mix a healthy dose of dreamy synthesizers, jangly guitars and gentle vocals to cook up their signature sound which is excitingly unexcited.

The Kind Hills are a group of old friends who first met while studying in Perth, Australia, many moons ago. They spent their nights going to concerts of local legends like Custard, Regurgitator, Sodastream, Mach Pelican, and Eskimo Joe, frequenting the local bottleshops, partying whenever the opportunity (or beer) arose, and exploring the city and its surroundings.

Fast forward to today, and the band members are spread out across the globe. Martin (Brisbane/Australia) and Roman (Lucerne/Switzerland) handle most of the writing, producing and singing, while Chase (Hong Kong), Jessica (London/UK), Brett (Perth/Australia), and Bea (Los Angeles/USA) provide invaluable vocal contributions and plenty of moral support. Their method of writing, recording, and collaborating may be unusual, but it’s also the secret ingredient behind their laid-back, dreamy music—proof that music can cross borders and time zones in a world more interconnected than ever.

Band Biography

Their debut album "Clusterluck", released in July 2023, was well received and got some solid radio airplay in Australia, Switzerland, and the US. Then, like any self-respecting band, The Kind Hills took a well-earned breather - because let’s face it, even rockstars need a nap every now and then.

But don’t worry, they’re back! Since June 2024, The Kind Hills have been releasing a brand new song at the end of every month, keeping the dream alive. And on 30 June 2025 they’ll drop their second album, "Feeling Blue With You" - a delightful compilation of all those monthly singles, plus the brand new track "Don't Let the Darkness Steal Your Light." It's the perfect soundtrack for those moments when you need a pick-me-up, a laugh, or just a nice little tune to remind you that life’s too short to take seriously.
