About
KITES are an alt/indie rock band based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, and have been making waves in the Northeast indie circuit since their formation in 2019, quickly gaining the attention of the local music scene playing sold out shows at iconic venues like The Cluny, ThinkTank, World Headquarters, and Sunderland’s The Independent. Their latest single 'Witch' thrust them further into the spotlight, demanding attention from industry leaders such as This Feeling, Gigslutz, Amazing Radio, HMV, and the BBC. This recognition earned them a coveted spot at Northern Kin festival in 2023. KITES has been working tirelessly to cement themselves among the new pioneers of the indie rock scene, supporting acclaimed bands such as JAWS and The Native on their UK tours, and building a loyal local following thanks to their undeniable talent, energetic performances, and incredibly photogenic bassist. KITES are best described as a potent cocktail of grunge-tainted indie rock - emanating nostalgia while pushing the boundaries of the genre. The band are currently working on their debut EP, which is scheduled for release in autumn 2024. @kitesband
