Kicks
Kix (stylized as KIX) was an American hard rock band formed in 1976, that achieved popularity during the 1980s. The band's classic lineup consisted of Donnie Purnell (bass, keyboards, backing vocals, primary songwriter, co-leader), Ronnie "10/10" Younkins (guitar), Brian "Damage" Forsythe (guitar), Steve Whiteman (lead vocals, co-leader), and Jimmy "Chocolate" Chalfant (drums, backing vocals). Kix covered Aerosmith, April Wine, Led Zeppelin, and others before signing with Atlantic Records in 1981. After peaking in the late 1980s, band members continued to record and tour until their disbandment in 2023.
Some journalists consider Kix to be among the greatest glam metal acts of all time.
