Behind the alias This Is The Kit is the creative engine of the project, songwriter and not least banjo player Kate Stables. Stables writes atmospheric and alternative folk songs in a sound universe driven by her quirky approach to songwriting.

Here, honest lyrics effortlessly slip between Stable's virtuoso ability on the banjo one moment and pursuing a more outgoing expression in true band style the next.

The music in This Is The Kit can in many ways be compared to genre colleagues such as Aldous Harding, Adrienne Lenker and Cate Le Bon and constantly tries to keep the listener present in the moment, in the present. In the press release, This Is The Kit writes:

"In today's fast-paced mid-apocalyptic world it can feel like a waste of time to speak about time at all. Why dwell on the past when we could just live in the present because the future won't shut up about how bad it's going to be?"

This Is The Kit made its entrance onto the music scene with the album Where It Lives from 2005 and has built up a solid catalogue of releases throughout the 00s and 10s, several of which have received great critical acclaim along the way.

Pitchfork was enthusiastic about the album Moonshine Freeze from 2017 and wrote: "A ramshackle energy propels Moonshine Freeze, the latest from Kate Stables' folk project This Is the Kit. With rootsy arrangements of banjo, horns, and gentle percussion, it retains the intimacy of its well-loved predecessor, 2015's Bashed Out.”

It will be an evening of strong songwriting and virtuoso musical craftsmanship when This Is The Kit keeps the audience engaged on May 1st in Lille VEGA.
