The Dils, Rank & File, Cowboy Music - to Kid's Punk Rock! The wonderful world of Chip Kinman...

For some, stretching the boundaries within a genre of music is a big enough challenge. How about artists who create new genres?

That's what you're talking about when you listen to the amazing body of work with Chip Kinman. And we're not talking about some goofball experimenting in his mom's basement.

We're talking - listening audiences. Fanbases in multiple genres. And now - Kid's Punk.

The Dils - the seminal LA true punk band fronted by Chip and bro Tony Kinman.
Rank & File - the invention of country-punk including Alejandro Escovedo.

Blackbird - industrial and noise - what a transition!

Cowboy Nation - traditional cowpoke songs following the trail of Autrey and more.

And now PCH - Pacific Coast Highway - punk with a youthful edge .

You gotta listen to the special in order to really get the nuggets of genius displayed!
