A super little venue and an ideal place to see Kate and her brilliant band. Sound quality was excellent and This is the Kit were fabulous. Amazing musicians playing great, unique songs. There is no one like them, fabulous.

This Is The Kit - SOLD OUT, The Boileroom, Guildford - 18th July 2018
Very sweet, genuine approach to her audience. Lovely music, almost as recorded, interaction with joked, stories and insights. Rest of the band were not looking so happy though.. apart from the base player.;) perhaps shy but basicslly not communicative.. Frontwoman made the whole difference!!

This Is The Kit, O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire, London - 25th January 2018
First time seeing This Is The Kit after being completely won over by Moonshine Freeze. Despite the limitations of the venue the gig was great; the band thoroughly engaging and even the odd technical issue or query over what key to start in was endearing and part of their absolute charm. Would happily go see them again.

This Is The Kit, The Soundhouse, Leicester - 6th October 2017
This Is The Kit is the musical project of British singer-songwriter Kate Stables, known for its warm, folk-inflected sound and thoughtful, understated songwriting. Originally formed in Bristol before later relocating to Paris, the project blends elements of folk, indie and subtle experimental textures. Early releases such as Krülle Bol (2011) and Bashed Out (2015), produced by The National’s Aaron Dessner, helped establish a reputation for intimate, intricately arranged songs.
Renowned for their gently captivating live performances, This Is The Kit have toured extensively across the UK and Europe, including appearances at festivals such as Green Man. Their later albums, including Moonshine Freeze (2017), Off Off On (2020) and Careful of Your Keepers (2023), have continued to earn critical acclaim. With a distinctive voice and a knack for quietly powerful storytelling, This Is The Kit remain a standout presence within the UK’s contemporary folk and indie landscape.
