Kite Theory writes some of the best music in Provo. I’m not too huge on the singer/songwriter thing, but Taylor Beckstead knows what he is doing with his voice and an acoustic guitar. Having Steve Mortensen on the keyboard and Michael Killian on the drums really helps the sound come alive. They manage to do more as a trio than most bands can with twice that many people. If you haven’t seen them yet, I recommend you go to their next show and just sit and listen to what they’re doing.
They lost last night to The Crylics, but we left to get food after a couple songs and came back later. At this point, I’m 80% certain that Archie Crisanto will be winning this Saturday.
