GET TO KNOW KIN FAUX.
Kin Faux bring fiddle, vocal harmony and an energetic band sound to the Texas country circuit. The San Antonio group built its identity around a collective performance style, with Rico Gonzalez’s fiddle and the guitar work of Jakey Black among its recognizable elements. Country songwriting remains central even when the arrangements push toward roots rock.
The group’s name belongs to an ensemble rather than a solo frontman project. Harmony parts, instrumental movement and a firm rhythmic foundation give the songs their shape. That approach makes it worth listening beyond the lead vocal: the interplay is part of the story, especially when a fiddle line answers a sung phrase.
