with Al Greenwood: Guitar

Enjoy an uplifting evening of gorgeous guitar, poignant lyrics and
feisty fiddle playing,
all with Kit’s incredible sense of fun!

Kit’s trademark sultry vocals and virtuoso guitar playing have wowed
audiences across the UK through extensive touring with the guitar
hero, John Etheridge. The Observer described her music as “Macy Gray
meets Nick Drake”, and both Bob Harris and Andy Kershaw have featured
her on their BBC shows. Recent gigs include: Paul McCartney’s LIPA;
the Anne Frank Awards at the BBC; a performance for Bill Bryson and
Andy Kershaw and a headline show at the International Guitar Festival
of Great Britain. Kit’s third album, Driving into the Blue, which
features the legendary double bass player Danny Thompson, was met with
high critical acclaim. Expect an enthralling and energetic live
performance of “blues-driven roots with a soul sensibility”.
