Getaway Dogs: Indonesia

Getaway Dogs Getaway Dogs is the brainchild of Kai Killion. Prior to this band, Killion made one solo album called Mermaid Legs & Getaway Dogs (2013), where the band name was born. In combination with Samantha Stone, Mikey Whalen, and Kai Kopecky, the group will release their debut album Lost In The Ebb on August 19.

The son of a Californian artist and a Brazilian immigrant, Killion was born in the States but spent his baby years in post-war Eritrea. His family returned to California, spending seven years in Santa Cruz, then moving up the coast to rural Point Reyes. They would eventually leave the US again, this time to spend a year living in Rio de Janeiro. It was during this year in Brazil, surrounded by a heavily musical family, that Killion came in touch with his Brazilian heritage and learned to play guitar.

All the places he has lived and travelled have collectively imprinted in him a unique style of musicianship, lending natural roots to jazz, folk, soul, and Brazilian music. [via Green Light Go Pub]
