Just For Kicks also known as JFK is an independent recording artist from Londonderry, NH. In 2015, he started his music career with his friends Clewless and QQuick in a trio they called CoLegit as they were attending college at Southern New Hampshire University at the time. JFK started working with Thirteen13all as his engineer, a relationship grew to becoming business partners as Thirteen13all presented the concept Minds of One Collective Genius (MOCG) and JFK wanted to help bring it to life. In 2016 Just For Kicks released his first EP ‘Miller Time’ followed by his debut Album ‘Consumer Behavior’ which was distributed on all major music platforms and featured music videos directed by Trevor Finney and Project 2.
Thanks to Project 2 Studios, in 2017, he appeared in numerous Chris Webby music videos leading to the opportunity to open for Webby at a sold out show in Worcester, MA. Following that JFK released another Project 2 Studios music video ‘Local Celebrity’ the intro and title track to his sophomore album. The album exemplified Just For Kicks and walked through the artist’s adolescence. JFK successfully ended the year with another sold out show opening for Ces Cru of Strange Music.
Just For Kicks maintained that momentum by releasing a music video every month for the year of 2018. The songs and videos catered to the emotions felt by the artist as the year went on and seasons changed in his home state of New Hampshire. While growing his presence online, JFK stepped away from the stage and went on a hiatus from live performances until he traveled to Atlanta, Georgia for the first time to perform at the A3C Festival. He would return to the festival scene in 2019 at SXSW in Austin, Texas; this time performing with fellow MOCG member Decibel playing drums. Just For Kicks recorded his latest EP ‘Give Me an Oscar’ executively produced by SkelliBeatz with live drums by Decibel. The track list of the EP was accompanied by their corresponding music videos in 2020.
