SUMMARY:Kipling Drozek and the Chaperones
DESCRIPTION:Kipling Drozek is twelve years old. His favorite things are video games\, “Weird Al” Yankovic\, Pokémon\, LEGO Mario\, and food. His least favorite things? Long walks\, school\, and consequences. Kip began writing music during COVID\, releasing his first album\, Oreshadow\, at the age of ten—and earning the record for the youngest musician ever to headline Club Passim. \nNow Kip is back with his sophomore outing\, Ick. Ick is a concept album all about things that Kip does not like: love songs\, coffee\, long car drives\, writer’s block\, cleaning his room\, and more. Featuring a full band and recorded/produced by the Grammy-nominated Zachariah Hickman\, the album is filled with catchy\, intricate\, open-hearted anthems about childhood\, often veering into accidentally profound reflections on the human experience.
