Alternative folk act This Is the Kit's rise to recognition was a slow and steady one. The name is essentially an alias for British musician Kate Stables who, along with a cast of both regular and revolving contributors, has been creating a unique style of literate, rhythmic indie folk since the mid-2000s. Although early records were met with a modicum of support, it was 2015's critically lauded Bashed Out LP that earned the group their first significant success. A major push from influential BBC 6 DJs and tours with the National and Iron & Wine brought Stables' music to a wider audience who stuck with them on later releases like Moonshine Freeze (2017), Off Off On (2020), and Careful of Your Keepers (2023).
Members of This Is the Kit include, or have included, Kate Stables and Jesse D Vernon.
