Kill It Kid
Kill It Kid were signed just 12 weeks from inception following a John Parish (PJ Harvey) produced EP. The band then hit Ryan Hadlock’s (The Gossip, Johnny Flynn) Seattle studio to lay down their debut album – later critically appraised across the board (“An Outstanding British Record 9/10” Clash Magazine. XFM New Music Award finalists, alongside The XX & Florence).
Life on the road, coupled with a misguided ‘nu-folk’ tag, pushed the band towards a new, dirtier, blues inspired sound. Recent single ‘Pray On Me’ proved grittier than anything prior, marrying a punishing riff a la Black Keys to Turpin’s anguished howl – and the band’s latest album ‘Feet Fall Heavy’, recorded with producer Leo Abrahams (Brian Eno, Brett Anderson) has been said to be ‘raw, inelegant and untainted’.
Kill It Kid play The Borderline on 26th March and will be supported by The Shoestrung and Handshake.
