We are a rock band that doesn't scream or yell or bitch about things. We like to rock. We play some funky rock and/or roll with some drums, some guitar, some bass and a guy who sings words and such.
A melding of rock guitars, funky drum beats and an array of vocal stylings comprises Slap That Kid...an eclectic rock band out of Connecticut. Formed over 2 years ago, the band has made a name for themselves throughout the state, amassing a huge mailing list, and playing frequently at local bars and clubs.
The band placed third in the "best band" category in the Fairfield County Weekly Newspaper's "Best of " voting in 2002. They also earned a third place finish in the annual "Battle of the Bands" - a 12 band competition held every summer at "Skybox," a popular venue for live music. Recently, Slap That Kid performed at the first annual CT Rock Awards held at the Webster Theater in Hartford, CT and was runner-up for the People's Choice Award. In addition, Slap That Kid performs regularly at a number of local hot spots like Toad's Place in New Haven, and the Playwright in both Stamford, CT and New Haven, CT.
We play live wherever anyone will have us! We LOVE to play live and our favorite place to play is Toad's Place in New Haven, CT.
