Summary

After releasing their first album “Subset” in late 2023, Kindred Music’s HI! WE’RE KINDRED! (ARE WE EVEN A BOYBAND?) pieces together archival footage and present-day retellings in a film that offers an intimate glimpse of their journey. From the first video call to several lock-in periods and endless nights at the studio, a story of connection and art-making unfolds. This documentary chronicles a team taking shape—one unafraid to test limits and have fun. Amidst an increasingly daunting musical landscape, Kindred pays homage to the process of creating with others. They collaborate with artists such as Annika Sy, Cola Salva Cruz, Timothy Axibal, Cenon at Mav, Koji Arboleda, and Paul Jatayna to craft an ever-evolving image. And as their relationships grow, so too does their sound. In the end, one thing is certain: this is only the beginning.
