Extra Blue Kind started almost by accident as singer/guitarist P. David Hazel, drummer Randee Eimer, guitarist David Barajas, and bass player Ryan Plew, four Indiana University students, met at a house party one night and decided to play when the scheduled band didn't show up. It worked out so well that they started Extra Blue Kind, eventually moving to Indianapolis together to pursue their music further. On a whim they entered a radio contest, and upon winning it they had the opportunity to play at the city's X Fest in 2002 alongside Stone Temple Pilots and Breaking Benjamin, record a single, "King of Everything," and open for Creed to a sold-out 10,000 seat Robert's Stadium in Evansville, IN. Finally, in 2005, the band signed with Cincinnati's Opulent Records and released their debut full-length, Tide and the Undertow, but after a year of extensive touring, releasing an MTV-played music video for "Pinch, Blink, Stay Alive", and appearing on network television's G4TV, the band found itself suffering a few lineup changes and eventually washed up on the shore. EBK called it quits in 2007. That's the "reader's digest" anyway...
15 years later...
In 2022, after a few successful reunion shows, the original lineup of EBK is back, releasing new music, and out playing shows again...just cuz it's a whole hell of a lotta fun.
