Kitty, Daisy and Lewis
Kitty, Daisy & Lewis are back due to popular demand. They were here just earlier this year but will return in January for their third visit to New Zealand to promote their acclaimed second album Smoking In Heaven. The multi-instrumentalist Durham siblings from North London’s Kentish Town have released two self-recorded albums of swing, jump-blues and ska. Between them the trio play guitar, piano, banjo, lap-steel guitar, harmonica, xylophone, double bass, ukulele, trombone and accordion, swapping instruments between songs.
Overview
Kitty, Daisy & Lewis are back due to popular demand. They were here just earlier this year but will return in January for their third visit to New Zealand to promote their acclaimed second album Smoking In Heaven.
The multi-instrumentalist Durham siblings from North London's Kentish Town have released two self-recorded albums of swing, jump-blues and ska. Between them the trio play guitar, piano, banjo, lap-steel guitar, harmonica, xylophone, double bass, ukulele, trombone and accordion, swapping instruments between songs.
Their new album is something of a departure from the sound established on their self-titled debut - while their first album reflected their tender years - 'the soundtrack to a very cool school dance' - Smoking in Heaven is a more rollicking and reckless knees-up for grown-ups'. (Scott Kara, NZ Herald).
Live, their line-up is added to by mum Ingrid, from legendary post-punk band The Raincoats, on double bass, dad Daddy Grazz on guitar and legendary Jamaican trumpet player Eddie 'Tan Tan' Thornton who turns 80 in 2012.
