OUR SOUND
THE BAND
Would You Kindly? is an acoustic electric, indie rock band based out of Kenosha, WI. The band was formed originally by the eclectic vocalist Gina Marie and brilliant guitarist Paul Hoskins in 2019. Almost every week, you could find Gina and Paul performing at the Sazzy B and Rustic Road open mics in downtown Kenosha playing a combination of covers like “Zombie" by The Cranberries and originals such as “The Aftermath.”
Later that year Would You Kindly? expanded, introducing the dynamic drummer, Jake Kleinhardt; followed by the versatile bassist, Daniel Harrison; and finally, the very talented violinist, Megan Weaver. They have had the tremendous opportunity to collaborate with a variety of local talents, such as Betsy Ade & The Well-Known Strangers, Resistance, Spare Animals, and 3 A.M. Saints.
As their profile expanded, Would You Kindly? earned various standing gigs, as well as new opportunities such as the 2020-2021 Taste of Wisconsin. They believe in being a huge support for the local Wisconsin and Illinois community. They have had the opportunity to play for benefits such as Songs of Freedom, Captains + Canines partnered with Safe Harbor Humane Society, Into The Space for the Kenosha Creative Space, and the grand opening of The Vault at Historic 625.
Most excitedly—and amidst the COVID-19 pandemic—Would You Kindly? has released their first official music video for “The Aftermath” in collaboration with Madsen Media Productions and Oscar Mercadillo. They also participated in many online events, some highlights include International Make Music Day (watch the My Song is Your Song 1959 by Jarred Venti) and Isolation Music Festival II (check out the 30 minute set).
When not participating in online events, Would You Kindly? has been inspired to record their first album to release Fall of 2021.
