What it took to move Christian Kidd's acoustic songs produced during the pandemic to full on Hates songs.
Christian Kidd has the quintessential Houston story. That makes Kidd — the heart of— the quintessential Houston musician. When he began his career in 1978, choosing the relatively upstart punk genre to express his notions on the world and the city he’s now so identified with, he was taking a huge risk. That risk was rewarded with a long career, bolstered by fans which he’s still adding to this day. He’s a survivor of the music industry and some well-documented health challenges.
Because they’re both longtime Houston music professionals, Wall and Kidd knew each other professionally. Once Wall got to know Kidd on a personal level, he said he said he was taken aback by how nice and humble Kidd is, words that are echoed by others who’ve met and known this Houston music icon. The pandemic’s slowdown gave him a chance to leap into action by asking Kidd to record new music.
“One thing I really tried to do, I wanted to have positivity. I was really trying to cheer people up. I think before I kind of got my footing on thinking about writing new songs, I think I already had in mind I was trying to have the positivity going on,” he said. We live in a time where YouTube and TikTok furthers The Hates music along. These platforms take music that’s almost 50 years old and puts it in front of today’s 15 year-olds. If there’s a vibe that 15 year-olds – and, let’s be honest, even 50 year-olds - need, it’s positivity. That’s the running theme through. Songs like “Alive and Well,” “Never Give Up,” “Do What Makes You Happy” and “Silver Lining” are infused with upbeat lyrics and vibes.
