Them Damn Kids

Chris Darby and Rolland Gairroes met in January of 2000, while attending theological formation for the Roman Catholic priesthood, at a small college in rural northwestern Missouri. Upon entering their final year in the seminary, they joined musically to form the now disbanded Formation Issue. Formation Issue played one concert before its certain demise.
A year later the paths of this duo again converged in La Grange Park, IL where many songs were resurrected. Upon this foundation, the grid work for Them Damn Kids was built. After a brief six month hiatus, the living quarters were relocated to the city of Chicago, IL in late 2003.
The band traveled as much as they could, traversing throughout Illinois and surrounding states. To date, they have played over 300 shows together. The simple desire to play as much as possible and bring joy to as many as possible are the primary motivations which fuel them.
Chris and Rolland are currently recording and performing together sporadically. Chris can still be seen at numerous places around the country, performing his solo work
