This is the Kit is the musical project of Kate Stables, a ‘rising star of contemporary folk’ (The Guardian) drawing accolades for her pure voice and songwriting craft.

For fifteen years Stables has been honing her original take on alt folk with the aid of band members Rozi Plain (bass), Jamie Whitby-Coles (drums) and Neil Smith (guitar), releasing a string of celebrated albums and delivering ecstatically reviewed live shows. Whether performing pared-back songs or complex, multi-layered compositions, their gigs are a joyful blend of warm, infectious melodies and gorgeous vocals, and St Canice’s is the perfect venue to experience their enthralling sound.
