THIS IS THE KIT (with support from SiNK)
Beyond Presents are delighted to announce This Is the Kit’s 2016 Highlands Tour.
The beloved musical project of one Kate Stables, This Is The Kit released her third album Bashed Outearlier last year. Produced by The National’s Aaron Dessner, it was acclaimed critically and quickly seen as her breakthrough record.
This Is The Kit have been in existence since the 00s, moving to Bristol to continue her musical education, before upping sticks and moving to Paris. It was here where her debut album Krulle Bol took shape, recorded and produced by PJ Harvey's long-standing musical collaborator John Parish. Her second album, 2010's Wriggle Out The Restless was made in France alongside members of Francois and the Atlas Mountains before final touches from TITK's extended musical family were added in Bristol, Belgium and several points in between.
Bashed Out features performances from Aaron, his brother Bryce Dessner, Benjamin Lanz (Beirut), Thomas Bartlett (Doveman, The Gloaming) and Matt Barrick (The Walkmen) alongside her regular cast of collaborators (Rozi Plain et al).
"The main reason for doing what I do is the exchange with other people—musical exchange yes, and other exchanges too. A hello and a handshake and the constant opportunity to learn from the knowledge and experience of others. As far as I can work out, the only thing worth doing in life is meeting, helping and swapping stories and experiences and resources with other people. Doing, making, learning."
Following a Summer touring Europe and playing at several festivals including Latitude and Tramlines, the band headed to Green Man and End of the Road before heading to Ireland for a special show at the Cork Opera House supporting Lisa Hannigan and Aaron Dessner. Previously hand-picked to support the likes The National, Sharon Van Etten, Iron & Wine and Jose Gonzales, This Is The Kit headlined a tour in November including London’s Scala and are now heading for the Highlands.
