The Get Up Kids

In the vibrant backdrop of KEXP Studios, The Get Up Kids delivered a captivating live performance of “Valentine” on September 9, 2024. This performance came shortly after they released their album "Problems" in 2021, which marked their return after a brief hiatus and showcased their growth while retaining that signature emo sound fans adore. The recording highlights not just their musical evolution but also their deep connection with the audience. This live session underscores how they continue to resonate emotionally, refining their craft while connecting with both new listeners and long-time fans. Interestingly, the dynamics within the band—Matt Pryor and Jim Suptic's vocals, paired with fresh sounds from key member Dustin Kinsey—bring a new layer of energy to their established repertoire. It's a perfect moment that encapsulates their journey, whether as seasoned musicians or a band navigating the ebbs and flows of the music scene.
