Initially, Kirk spent several years performing his electronic and computer-based pop as a solo act before expanding Panama Wedding into a full ensemble with a rhythm section.
The online popularity of the song, as well as a series of successful appearances at CMJ, helped broaden the band's profile and they quickly signed to Glassnote Records.
Panama Wedding has toured with several artists including St. Lucia, Magic Man, Smallpools, Dan Croll, and RAC.
In the spring of 2016, Panama Wedding went on a 28 city tour with Magic Man & The Griswolds.
Afterwards, Panama Wedding played several summer festivals including Mo Pop in Detroit and Lollapalooza.
