Black Kids Play Through LA Earthquake

Black Kids were in Los Angeles this week when the earthquake struck - however, they didn't even know it had occurred.

The band were performing three tracks as part of a Yahoo! session on Tuesday July 29th, when during a rendition of 'Boyfriend', the 5.8 quake hit for around 45 seconds.

"We were in the middle of recording a session when the quake occurred. None of us, except Kevin, felt it." Say Black Kids.

"I saw the photographer make a startled face, and thought, 'Lady, it's a good tune, but REALLY'. I was embarrassed by my smugness when we were told that there was an earthquake."

The group's debut album Partie Traumatic is out now.
