Knats have been receiving quite a bit of coverage on
BSH in recent weeks via gigs at Hoochie, The Globe and other venues around
Newcastle. Deservedly so.
They're a band who may not yet have decided where they are going but you know that, wherever it is, they'll get there. Whether they get there together or as individuals remains to be seen. With music college places on the horizon their paths may diverge but, in the meantime they have laid down a couple of tracks (digitally) that tells us where they are at and hints at where or where not they may be going.
Ferg Kilsby is surely the most promising young
trumpet player currently on the scene and he's literally at only the beginning
of his journey - watch this space!
Nor are his associates any less able although I suspect
they may - and it's a very qualified may - ultimately move in different
directions. However, for the time being let's cherish this groundfloor moment.
Check out these two digital tracks released today. Full versions on Spotify etc. - Lance
