Frogpond

Kansas City-based alternative rock band originally formed in Warrensburg, MO by Heidi Phillips, Gigi Holmes and Julie Hicks in 1993. Frogpond released 2 major label albums in 1996 ("Count To Ten") and 1999 ("Safe Ride Home"). Their initial run ended in 2000.

Founder, songwriter and guitarist Heidi Phillips re-formed the group in early 2021 with former bassist Justine Volpe (replaced by Meredith McGrade in 2022), plus new members Kristin Conkright and Michelle Bacon. Their first performance in 20+ years was a private event on July 24, 2021. Frogpond's first public reunion show was a sold-out concert at recordBar (Kansas City) on Nov. 27, 2021, celebrating the release of their new album, "TimeThief."
