About the show
Quirky. Quaint. Feels like a hug.
In this mid-apocalyptic world, it can feel pointless to dwell on time. Why look back when we could live in the present? But for This Is The Kit, AKA Kate Stables, time’s worth a little consideration. The UK songwriter and banjo strummer is still here, making albums with devastating honesty and welcoming tonal embraces. And they keep growing, which is probably the only smart way to move forward through these times.
This Is The Kit’s music brings people together, so being welcomed into its space feels amazing. On record and in concert halls with her are her stellar band, Rozi Plain (bass), Jamie Whitby-Coles (drums) and Neil Smith (guitar). And in these times to stand tall and make music to gather to together that’s a heroic act. Spend some at a This Is The Kit gig and we promise it’ll be worth it.
Featuring - This Is The Kit
This is the Kit is the musical project of Paris-via-Bristol singer/songwriter Kate Stables who sings and plays banjo and guitar, sometimes solo and other times in other guises: duo, psychedelic rock-formation, 4-4-2, unplugged acoustic gigs, choir workshops, home shows, busking etc. If you thought you didn’t like the banjo, This Is The Kit will prove you wrong as Kate rips forward with a hypnotic twang pattern and a voice of rare beauty, accompanied by a backing band of minimal psychedelia.
