The Kids Born Wrong (Initially known as Niles Kane and The Kids Born Wrong) are scuzzy mutant rock. Founded in late 2015 by Niles Kane initially as a solo project, KBW would turn into a power trio within a year of forming. By the 2020s and the release of their second album they'd be frequently performing outside Louisville, touring and playing events like GonerFest in Memphis.
