Next song:
Strong Woman
"Strong Woman" is a love song dedicated to every powerhouse woman we’ve met.
Gone are the days when a strong woman was somehow a threat to “manhood.” In fact, if someone else's success leaves you feeling “emasculated,” it might be time for such dudes and bros out there to redefine what makes a man truly strong. Having someone by your side who’s better and more successful at things isn’t a weakness; it’s smart teamwork. So, for the guys who’ve still got one foot stuck in the past: take a deep breath and embrace the power of a strong partner!
"Strong Woman" celebrates the kind of relationship that lifts you up — where you don’t just survive, but thrive with someone who makes you better, bolder, and maybe even... a little less of a knucklehead!
"Blue with you" will be the next song, and it's set for release on January 31.

Discography
Since then, Martin has joined the band as songwriter and lead singer. He is an old friend of the band and lives in Brisbane/Australia. This makes the connection of the Kind Hills with Australia even stronger. It's not only where all the band members have met a long time ago, it's also a main inspiration thematically and musically. And now, it's also where almost half the band lives.
Martin and Roman have been and are actively writing new material. Wanting to keep things simple and pressure low, no follow up album is currently planned. Instead, the band just focusses on one song at a time and releases a new track at the end of every month. Starting July 2024.
The Kind Hills are a group of old friends who met while studying in Perth/Australia many years ago. They went to many concerts of local bands like Custard, Regugitator, Mach Pelican or Eskimo Joe, became friends with the people working at their local bottleshop, partied whenever there was an opportunity and explored the city and surroundings.
Now they live scattered across the world. Martin (Brisbane/Australia) and Roman (Lucerne/Switzerland) are doing most of the writing, producing and singing, with invaluable vocal contributions and ongoing encouragements from Chase (Hong Kong), Jessica (London/UK), Brett (Perth/Australia) and Bea (Los Angeles/USA).
Their unusual approach to songwriting, recording and collaborating is the foundation of their laid-back, dreamy music and truly exemplifies music’s boundless potency in a world more interconnected than ever.
The songs take a humorous look at everyday joys and challenges. The Kind Hills never take themselves very seriously which is also their recommendation on how to deal with life. Do you need a sense of humor to like their music? No! But it helps.
In July 2023 their debut album Clusterluck was released. 'Let youth take over' and 'Waiting for the good times' were released as singles ahead of the album and gained quite some radio airplay in Australia, Switzerland and the US. Afterwards all members of the band focused on their other musical projects for a little while.

Clusterluck (2023)
The album Clusterluck features super relaxed tunes that are quiet, cozy and warm. The band call it 'music to fall asleep to' and they mean that in a postitive way. It's the perfect soundtrack for a chilled picnic in the countryside, an exhausted or hung-over moment in bed or a long, beautiful road trip.
