Lexington Live Concert Series Featuring the Mighty Kicks at the Icehouse Amphitheater

he Mighty Kicks! began in 1986 when a group of friends from Orangeburg, S.C., started an air band, the rage at the time, and proceeded to win contests across the region. They were all musicians and eventually started a “real” band, calling it The Kicks! The band began to earn name recognition throughout the Southeast, performing for large festivals and private events from Georgia to Washington, D.C. They were placed on the U.S. Department of Defense’s roster of approved artists to perform for U.S. troops stationed all over the world, and had the honor of performing on aircraft carriers and military bases throughout Europe and Central America.
