Kindred Valley

Free Show
Indie folk band Kindred Valley started when three friends with a passion for music met at Marshall University in 2020. Initially under the name Back Row Baptists, Blake Lacy, Noah Freeman and Brett McCoy met in Huntington, West Virginia, and began writing and recording music together. The band released its first singles as a trio but found its footing in 2021 with three new members - Husband and Wife Rachael and Jadon Hayes and Kaden Salmons.

With three new members and a flurry of new ideas, the band needed a new name. Now named Kindred Valley, Lacy and Salmons wrote an early version of the band’s single “Whistle” during the group’s first meet-up. With new blood and fresh ideas flowing, Kindred Valley released its fifth single, “The Wedding Song,” in 2021.

After almost two years of creative efforts, the group released its self-titled debut album at the end of 2022. This was followed by an EP titled “What Was Left” containing ideas and songs inspired by their new experiences of playing live together all across the East Coast. Kindred Valley continues to tour and to write new music into 2025 and has big plans for the months to come.
