We are KALAMIT̄, a rock band out of central Illinois. It's pronounced "Calamity", with optional emphasis on the "T" sound. The "K" is for Kowalski and the "T" is for Tonarelli, the last names of our members.
What kind of music do we play?
We focus mostly on 1970s - 2000s rock and its adjacent genres, but we try to include a variety of genres in our repertoire. See our song list for examples.
Are we any good?
To hesitant audiences: come see us and find out! To cautious venues: let's schedule something, you won't regret it!
How long have we been playing?
Our debut show was in November 2025. See our past shows to get a better sense.
