Chris Gravett

I've been waiting since last September to see Kill It Kid live again. They've been touring Europe of late and have just three UK gigs lined up. Manchester, Bath (their home town) and last night at The Borderline, London.

I first heard of KIK when I shot them at Lodestar Festival . What a joy it was to discover them. Raw blues live at it's very best. I read a review of their Manchester gig this week which quite rightly rated them highly but complained that they should relax and enjoy themselves on stage. Last night they enjoyed themselves visibly. Playing to a full house at The Borderline they went down a storm. Chris Turpin, who fronts the band with Stephanie Ward, mentioned two names during the set which say it all about their musical influencess - Blind Lemon Jefferson and Woody Guthrie. Kill It Kid's live performance gives them every right to associate themselves with such musical legends. Take a look at the set of images below and check out their music here  and here . But best of all catch them live if you can.
