Kirra is a rock band based out of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Their style has been described as straight up rock and roll. Though their time as a band has been very short their progress would make it hard to believe. Kirra has opened for such acts as 3 Doors Down, Saving Abel, Icon for Hire, Primer 55, Screaming for Silence, and Kill Devil Hill and played at venues like The Chameleon Room, The Harley Davidson Show, The Dallas Music Festival, Bricktown Music Hall, The Voodoo Lounge, First Council Casino, and The World Famous Whisky A Go-Go in LA. They have recently released a 4 song Ep on iTunes (and every major digital store) entitled "Sounds from an Empty Room." They have also recorded a 4 song demo that can be viewed at Sound Cloud. The demo includes their songs “Too Far Gone”, “Lay You Down”, “Chemicals”, and “Tappy Gilmore” which was featured on Oklahoma’s 100.5 THE KATT. They are currently in the studio now to record 8 MORE tracks in writing their first LP! Members of Kirra include Jesse Williamson on vocals and rhythm guitar, Ryne McNeill on bass guitar and backing vocals, Daxton Page on lead guitar, & Zach Stafford on drums. If you want to see them live be sure to keep an eye on their Facebook for dates.
"My first impression of Kirra is Nirvana. I don’t make that comparison lightly. The vocals are grungy enough (but still not a pitch error in sight) with that slight drag that Kurt Cobain made so famous. However, when you get to the shredding guitar solos and thrashing drums, you will instantly remember that this isn’t just grunge. This is instantly apparent in songs like “Drown” and “Downfall.”
The lyrics won’t leave you disappointed, either. Take a listen and it sounds like these guys have been around for longer than just a year and like they’ve had plenty of writing and performing experience to run circles around the new rock competition."
