About Me

This is a U.K. based 'fansite' for the band The Kin. The Kin(U.K.) has a main objective of building awareness & support for the band in the U.K. hopefully resulting in the band coming to the U.K. to play. This site is not run by the band nor can they be contacted directly through it.BIO: The Kin is a partnership of two brothers from the small town of Adelaide, Australia, who have found their way to New York. They drive around in a 1977 VW bus, known as ‘Daisy’ that has no heat. They have Scottish blood and play to a highland marching style of rhythms. Thorry plays the guitar with a knee-jerk drive that forms the backbone of the music, while Isaac lays down swirling dynamics with a Rhodes piano. Their voices are compelling individually; Thorry hits the angelic high notes and gravelly low notes, while Isaac croons softly one moment, then sings out like a town crier. But you don't fully understand The Kin until you hear them sing together. They start out in unison, trade off leads and slam into bracing harmonies. They change the subject when you talk of style and influences, then talk your ear off about their musical heroes. - www.thekin.com

Music:

BILLBOARD MAGAZINE SINGLE REVIEW:From second album "Rise and Fall," Aussie duo's launch single exemplifies the partnership between brothers, as haunting reverberated harmonies flow through the ultimate irony: rich minimalism. Pulsating guitars and gliding strings tie together the simple, serene words of "Blue on Blue," leaving an elegant melodic tap dance in the brain. A refreshing sound, the song hints at nostalgic folk, while bearing an overall alternative bent. Wholly promising.—Marc D. Pellegrino
