Kid British are well poised to lift off the gloom this year. Having drawn on the street smart sound of pop heavyweights Blur and Madness, the four piece have allied their songwriting craft to a ballsy hip hop production. The results are a rude boy mix of club-friendly beats and bedroom-styled harmonies as evidenced by their recent sold out limited edition ‘Leave London EP’ and this year’s debut album, It Was This or Football. Meanwhile, a riotous live sound has them earmarked as one of the must see new bands of 2009.
The band have recently been in the studio with the production talents of Steve Dubb (Chemical Brothers), Stephen Street (Blur) and the mix talents of Steve Power to put the finishing touches to their debut album It Was This or Football, which has been split into two parts; the 'First half' and the 'Second half'. the first half is due for release in July 2009. They have been touring solidly since the Summer 08 and have recently supported The Enemy on their national academy tour and The Specials on their sold out UK Tour.
