About
Beginning as the evolution of <a href="spotify:artist:31qnA6Vqs3z3O9soTyUlOU" data-name="Jeff Klemm & the Letters">Jeff Klemm & the Letters</a>, transformed into so much more. Diamond Kites is the new project from prolific songwriter <a href="spotify:artist:5VSdYZt8iify3GikkBFIkD" data-name="Jeff Klemm">Jeff Klemm</a> (of <a href="spotify:artist:2V056eAjGo7SvtPcDVFWep" data-name="Maid Myriad">Maid Myriad</a>) and nationally renowned producer/engineer Nathan Doutt (ex <a href="spotify:artist:1W284zSXcPZRHsP87I0FTh" data-name="Tweaktronic">Tweaktronic</a>.) Adding touring road-dog bassist Mario Tonathy (Maid Myriad) and powerhouse drummer Mike Karl brings a whole new element of focused songwriting and immersive performance experience. Using The Letters back catalog as a starting point, Diamond Kites have released four power pop singles earning accolades from the Akron Beacon Journal calling Diamond Kites "Melodic, Radio-Ready Rock." The singles showcase the outfits versatility bending and blending genres. From the catchy guitar rock of "All Mine" to the can't-get-out-of-your-head synth driven pop of "The Way You Say It.” Comfortably switching gears, the <a href="spotify:artist:0YQBN02bmZvwGNrrWsg2sT" data-name="Minus the Bear">Minus the Bear</a> influenced "Seventeen" revisits the youth of Klemm's days cutting his teeth as a young musician in love at a local (now defunct) all ages club in Downtown Akron called The Orange Street. "Not Giving Up" is an arena rock song that has quickly grown as a crowd favorite. Currently working on new material, the band’s concert experience implements a video component furthering their quest for content.
