This Is the Kit Booking Agency Profile

Book This Is the Kit for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
The British folk/rock band This Is the Kit gained popularity when BBC iPlayer premiered an episode of the docu-series Music Box featuring This Is the Kit’s music and inspirations. The show host, Guy Garvey, proclaimed that the band’s second album Wriggle Out the Restless deserved a Mercury Prize nomination. Prior their BBC feature, This Is the Kit received heavy airplay from BBC 6 DJs, such as Lauren Laverne, Radcliffe & Maconie, Cerys Matthews and Mary Ann Hobbs, who are all big fans. DJ Marc Riley has hosted the band for three BBC live sessions, and BBC 1 has offered the band spot plays via DJs Huw Stephens, Jen & Ally, and Phil Taggart. As This Is the Kit were getting ready to release their third album Bashed Out, they began to receive even more praise from both online and print critics, with Uncut, Drowned in Sound, The Line of Best Fit and The 405 all rating the album 8/10. The Mancunion rated the band’s live show a nearly perfect 9/10. Bashed Out went down as one of the top British recordings of its release year. Most recently, This Is the Kit released their fourth album Moonshine Freeze, earning rave reviews from Pitchfork, The Guardian, NPR, and Paste Magazine..
