Active Decades: 90 2000

The Florida-based soft rock band A Kite Is A Victim -- sometimes called AKIAV by fans -- spent years playing at local clubs, coffeehouses, and any other place they could land a gig. The group is known to show up dressed all in black, their music often quiet, soft, and even sad. Members are acoustic guitarist, songwriter, and singer Al Galvez; bassist Henry Rajan; and percussionist and drummer Ulysses Perez. Those years of performing from gig to gig, keeping an exhausting schedule, gave the guys plenty of time to perfect their skills and their act. It also gave them the chance to share the stag with artists like Cerberus Shoal, the Van Pelt, Retsin, Low, and Sonora Pine.
