Just the Kid

Pop, Powerpop, Rock | Aledo, Illinois

Saccharine-sweet choruses and bursts of kinetic energy are packed into each and every one of Just The Kid's songs. The Quad Cities natives meld a diverse array of pop, rock, and hip-hop into dance floor ready tracks that ooze with vitality in a scene that's too often dominated by haircuts instead of hooks.

The quintet - consisting of vocalist Jordan "Roldy" Teel, guitarists Paul Bridgford and Derek Esp, bassist Jonathan "Jonny" Guyton, and drummer Bryce Schroeder, formed in February 2009 combining members of two local bands (Bridgeford and 9heart21). Combined, group members have performed with the likes of bands like All Time Low, The Rocket Summer and Hit The Lights.

With experience already under their belts, Just The Kid wasted no time writing and recording. In July 2009, they released Keep It Fun!, their debut EP. Keep It Fun! is not only just a title. It's the band's modus operandi. "We all have agreed that we think our music is feel good music," says guitarist Paul Bridgford. "There's always an upbeat vibe to our shows, and we try to project that image as well."
