The G-Man Presents…This Is The Kit
This Is The Kit for Cork…
With an Other Voices performance already recorded and ready to air on RTÉ in the Spring, Paris-based This Is The Kit return to Irish shores in May with a date lined up for Triskel Art Centre’s TDC auditorium. Led by songwriter Kate Stables, the foursome (sometimes threesome, sometimes five) were named by fellow folk-rocker Sharon Van Etten as her “favorite new artist” as part of a feature for Pitchfork in 2012 so it is with the utmost pleasure that I can confirm Stables and co. will play a Summer G-Man Presents… show.
