Nim Vind

NIM VIND is an artistic singer from Vancouver, Canada. He has a unique sound and is known for successfully mixing horror punk with many styles such as Doo-Wop (Killer Creature Double Feature), country (The Bitter End), Arena Rock (The Radio Active Man), and Electronica (Astronomicon). Nim Vind (Chris Kirkham) plays the guitar and sings, accompanied by his brother Anthony Kilz (Anthony Kirkham) on drums, JJ Blood Boy (Joseph Blood) on bass, and also the third Kirkham brother, Robbie, who periodically appears on bass.

Nim Vind has released two albums. His debut album The Fashion of Fear came out on the German label FiendForce Records and featured extensive touring in Germany, Mainland Europe and the USA. His second full-length release The Stillness Illness came out last summer on Silverdust Records Germany and his own imprint "Nim Vind Music- Beef Records Inc." His promotional shows for this album have been his biggest yet. Nim Vind and Anthony Kilz both play for the Canadian alternative group The Vincent Black Shadow with their brother Robbie Kirkham and fellow Vancouverite Cassandra Ford. Nim Vind gained a strong cult following in his previous band, Mr. Underhill, and his notoriety continues to grow with Nim Vind as more and more new bands cover his songs and salute his style. The popular Phoenix band of brothers Calabrese are followers of the Nim Vind method and sound.
