Welcome to the official YouTube channel for Kim Salmon.
Kim Leith Salmon is an Australian indie punk rock musician and songwriter.
Kim Salmon's most enduring legacy, and not one that he particularly tried for, will no doubt be that many blame him, or at least his band The Scientists, for 'grunge'. Kim's given up resisting. He just figures 'where there's smoke there's fire'.
Kim began writing songs in Perth's first Punk band, The Cheap Nasties and has continued ever since with such bands as The Scientists, the Beasts of Bourbon, Kim Salmon and the Surrealists, The Business, STM, even a stint with the Blackeyed Susans, Antenna, The Darling Downs, SALMON, and his latest, Precious Jules. His scope covers punk and garage, old school hard rock, avant garde, folk, blues jazz, electro, country and of course grunge.
His lyrics are not confined to the narrative, but pretty much cover everything from abstract characterisations to just plain simple rhyming ditties.
