From Savannah, Georgia to Miami, Florida, psych metal rock crew Kylesa is bringing their Exhausting Fire to Churchill’s. “Every album of ours has a theme,” writes core member Phillip Cope on the band’s website. “Exhausting Fire is all about rebuilding. The band was going through hard times; our tour cycle was hard, we were questioning where we were at and we had to rebuild ourselves as a band, push forward, and work on our own foundations so as not get stuck. That contributed to how hard we worked on this record.” See the fruits of their labor this week at Little Haiti’s rock gem.
