18th & Addison

18th & Addison is an eclectic punk-rock/pop-rock duo consisting of Tom Kunzman and Kait DiBenedetto who have been fearlessly blending all of their influences from first wave punk to new wave to 90's alternative and power-pop since November of 2014.
18th & Addison are truly creating a unique style of music to call their own. With the ferociously honest yet poetic lyrical content, unapologetic punch-in-the-gut guitar riffs and power house drums to drive it all home, they are proving that they are here to stay whether you want them here or not.

In 2015, Tom & Kait released their first ever EP entitled 'Little Parasites' which featured 7 songs including 'Like Porcelain' and 'Jealousy' which happened to be their first single and music video.

'Little Parasites' was urgently followed by the full length 'Makeshift Monster' which included 11 songs. The first single 'War' earned them the award for Best Alt Rock Song at the Akademia Music Awards. It also features the song 'Moving Mountains' which has become a staple in their set it & remains a crowd favorite. Both releases earned them a great amount of radio play nationwide and more importantly, fans across the world.

The release of 'Makeshift Monster' was followed by a long year of on and off touring. A task which Tom took upon himself in order to pick up where a former booking agency left off. These tours consisted of mostly regional southern east coast shows as well as a few festival appearances at Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival with Hidden In Plain View & Dashboard Confessional, SxSw, Red Gorilla Festival & the Camden, NJ date of Vans Warped Tour with The Atari's, Anti-Flag, Andy Black and William Control.
From there, Tom & Kait were right back in the studio with new music!

A new four song EP entitled 'Vultures' is due out on June 1st, 2018. This will be the duo's third independent release with music videos & tours to follow.
