Kids That Fly signed with Giant Music for records.
Kids That Fly are managed by Larry Mattera & booked by UTA.
Kids That Fly is an alternative pop/rock band that formed in 2018 at the University of Connecticut. The group consists of lead vocalist/guitarist Nick Smeriglio, bassist Braden Frandino, lead guitarist/synth Blake Henry, and touring drummer Adam Machado. Known for their energetic and inviting live shows, often performed in signature flight suits, they draw heavy inspiration from '80s and early 2000s alternative rock bands like The Killers and The Strokes. Their music features catchy, nostalgic melodies with pop hooks, exemplified in successful tracks like "Dead Beat City" and the viral "Kiss Her You Fool." Kids That Fly cultivate a fan-friendly, community vibe at shows and have steadily built a dedicated organic fanbase with over 16,000 local Spotify listeners. Their approach balances modern digital promotion with a genuine passion for music and live engagement, aiming to create an escape and a connection for their audience. They have released EPs such as "Dead Beat City" and continue to expand their reach with national tours and new music releases.
