About Kill’n Smalls
The fall of 2016 saw the formation of a group intent on setting the standard for live music throughout South Central Indiana based on a shared philosophy of creating the ultimate party atmosphere. With a setlist that read like a who’s who of the hottest party rock, dance and country hits of the past 50+ years coupled with a high-energy, interactive visual stage performance, the newly formed Kill’n Smalls did just that packing dancefloors throughout Central, South Central and Southern Indiana.
Early 2017 and early 2019 saw two individuals join and quickly become key elements to the look and sound that has become synonymous with Kill’n Smalls. The group has garnered an impressive resume of live performances with and/or for many popular national recording artists such as The Elms, Brent James & The Vintage Youth, Larry Crane and Tantric in addition to headlining numerous festivals throughout the area. As pictured here, the group was excited and honored to win the Battle of the Bands at the home of live music in North Vernon, Indiana, PhatGuy Sports Bar & Grill.
Today, Kill’n Smalls continues in the same tradition packing dancefloors and entertaining crowds throughout Central, South Central, Southern Indiana, and Northern Kentucky.
Kill’n Smalls is: Ashley Newcomb (Vocals/Keys/Acoustic Guitar/Lead Tambourine), Rhonda Sage (Vocals/Bass Guitar), Nathan Brady (Vocals/Lead Guitar) and Chris Baxter (Vocals / Drums).
