Pool Kids are an American emo and indie rock outfit hailing from Tallahassee, Florida, known for their dynamic blend of intricate math rock influences and heartfelt songwriting. The band comprises Christine Goodwyne (lead vocals, multi-instrumentalist), Caden Clinton (drums), Andy Anaya (guitar), and Nicolette Alvarez (bass), and has carved out a distinctive presence within the alternative music scene. Their discography includes critically noted releases such as Music to Practice Safe Sex To (2018), the self-titled Pool Kids (2022), and their latest album, Easier Said Than Done, released via Epitaph Records in August 2025.

Renowned for their emotionally charged live performances, Pool Kids have recently taken headline slots across Europe, with notable gigs in March 2026 at venues such as The Garage in London, Patterns in Brighton, Supersonic in Paris, and Berghain Kantine in Berlin. These concerts have showcased their signature sonic intensity and technical prowess to eager audiences in the UK and mainland Europe, reinforcing their reputation as a must-see act within the emo and indie rock spheres.
