Биография

Kiven was a band from the 2010-era of the Los Angeles rock and alternative music community but later went on permanent hiatus in the Spring of 2016. BIO (2014): KIVEN is Tyler Demorest [Vocals, Guitar, Keyboard], Matt Cohen [Bass], Danny Schnair [Guitar], and Jake Reed [Drums]. In a musical landscape that continues to bridge a gap between pop craftsmanship and hard-edged rock music, the members of Los Angeles collective Kiven find a meeting point between both with an inventive twist. Merging thick guitars and entrancing harmonies, Kiven's music properly captures a heavy and hypnotic sound, preserving its enigmatic intensity and ethereal spirit in the process. KIVEN manages to make history with one stand-out track, "I Can Take It". For the first time, the drummer/man behind At the Drive-In's arrangements, Tony Hajjar, stepped behind the board to produce an outside band. With the legendary drummer's help, the group taps into palpable and potent energy. The energy transfers across the entire tracklisting though, especially on the undeniable first single "In The Fire", premiering online very soon. About the album, vocalist, guitarist, and keyboardist Tyler Demorest exclaims, "We spent a lot of time writing songs that were our sound and, at the same time, grew what KIVEN is.”
