Kill It kid band 

Kill It Kid - Levi's Great Escape Festival

Kill It Kid blend delta blues and roots to striking effect, producing blistering rock’n’roll in one moment and a smoky filmnoire
ambience in the next.

Fronted by the gorgeous two-part vocal harmonies of singers Chris Turpin and Stephanie Ward, the lyrical intimacy of the songs is rendered all the more powerful by the interplay between the pair, Turpin’s distinctive voice seemingly arriving from another time and place, while Ward’s softer,huskier tones make for the perfect foil.

Kill It Kid’s critical reputation grew through the course of 2009 as the likes of Jonathan Ross, Dermot O’Leary, Huw Stephens and Radcliffe & Maconie gave their support to the band. In October the band’s ‘Heaven Never Seemed So Close’ single pipped The Big Pink in
the vote, winning Steve Lamacq’s ‘Roundtable’ show and the band finished in the final 10 of XFM’s NewMusic Award in the company of Florence and the Machine and The XX.
