The beloved musical project of Kate Stables
This Is The Kit is the musical project of Kate Stables and long time collaborator Jesse Vernon, who are based in both Bristol and Paris. After appearing on Sunday Best Recordings’ 2006 compilation album ‘Folk Off’, the band received high praise from Drowned In Sound, and have subsequently been embraced by BBC radio for their quintessential ‘Britishness’. From 6Music, DJs Lauren Laverne, Radcliffe and Maconie, Marc Riley, Guy Garvey, Cerys Matthews, and Mary Anne Hobbs, and at Radio 1, Huw Stephens, Jen and Ally, and Phil Taggart have all given the band airplay.
On their third album, ‘Bashed Out’, the band collaborated with Aaron Dessner, best known for his work in The National. Indeed the record features the instrumental talents of not only the touring members of the band (Rozi Plain, Jesse Vernon, Jamie Whitby-Coles), but also session players from the Brooklyn music scene, including Bryce Dessner, Thomas Bartlett (Doveman, The Gloaming), Matt Barrick (The Walkmen) and Ben Lanz (Beirut, The National). The music remains quintessentially British, in a one-of-a-kind eccentric manner, and rooted in folk, but also encompasses elements of psychedelia, alternative rock, and electronic textures and sensibilities.
This is The Kit return to Trinity following performing live at BBC6 Music Festival Fringe February 2016.
