{{quote|text=Live in Philly was Adam Bainbridge's contribution to the Eric James Johnson Memorial Fellowship program. It consists of an album recorded during his stay at the Institute in May 2007, and a small pamphlet illustrating the work, typeset by hand. Employing a variety of musicians from the Institute and the rest of Philadelphia, as well as sound sources and records found or recorded in the city, the Kindness album is a personal and welcome contribution to the Institute's body of work.|sign=The Philadelphia Institute for Advance Study|source= }}Live in Philly was released in 2007 as a free MP3 download and CDr, with no label.[5]

In 2009, Moshi Moshi Records released Kindness debut single Swingin’ Party. Gee Up was included on the vinyl b-side and a VHS video directed by Jack Latham accompanied it.[6]

In October 2011, Cyan was released as a limited edition 12" vinyl through Kindness's own record label Female Energy in the UK and Terrible Records in North America. The B-side contained 3 unnamed lock grooves.

Kindness's debut album, World, You Need a Change of Mind, co-produced & mixed by Grammy Award-winning producer Philippe Zdar[7] was released on 16 March 2012. Live sessions were recorded for Radio 1's Zane Lowe[8] and Rob da Bank[9] as well as 6Music's Lauren Laverne, Live from Maida Vale.[10] Kindness also played the iTunes Festival 2012.

In 2013, Kindness contributed to production and instrumentation on Blood Orange's Cupid Deluxe.[11]

On 13 October 2014 Kindness released their second album Otherness featuring contributions from Robyn, Dev Hynes, Kelela and more.

During a 2015 lecture for Red Bull Music Academy Kindness discussed their recent music career, and their gender identity and sexuality.[12]
