Amidst the charged atmosphere at Fox Oakland on March 16, 2024, The Kills unleashed a sonic storm. Fronted by the duo of Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince, The Kills wasted no time drawing the crowd in with their blend of raw energy and charisma.

After a 6 year hiatus The Kills are back! The anticipation in the crowd was palpable and as they came on the crowd was definitely excited. They started out with a little jam just so that the crowd could soak in their return.
