Constantly flirting with elements of pop punk, swing and dirty rock, Kill Disco are a young, fresh, alternative, rock band hailing from the South of Cape Town, South Africa.
Kill Disco burst onto the Cape Town music scene as "The Kings of Vegas" in the summer of 2007, quickly becoming a crowd favourite, with their energetic live performances and infectious brand of rock n roll. They changed their name to Kill Disco in 2010.
More recently, they have shared the stage with some of South Africa’s hottest bands (Cassette, The Dirty Skirts, Taxi Violence, Shy Guevaras and The City Bowl Misers).
They were also very well received at Splashy Fen Music festival (Oldest SA Fest), where they brought the house down during their fierce live performance. So much so that the preproduction Demo of their first single “Murder under the Mirrorball” was included on the festival compilation CD.
Kill Disco completed recording in Serotonin Sound Studios, for their much anticipated debut EP album, entitled "Murder Under the Mirrorball". The EP was released in August 2008.
The band officially began late in the winter of 2006. Zack Emmanuel (Bass) joined up with childhood friends, Wesley”Doonk” Daniels (Drums), Wesley Currin (Guitar) and Ryan Weiderman (Guitar), formally of Scarlet System. Four became Five, several months later, when Richard Kronk (Vocals / Synth), former front man of Humanera, joined to complete the line up and Kill Disco was born. The boys draw from an eclectic base of musical influence and styles, which culminates into their unique brand of music.
