Kite Thief gained some hugely enthusiastic press in 2023. Championed by Metal Hammer, Kerrang! and Total Rock, as well as gaining airplay on several BBC regional stations, the band’s crossover sound connected with an enthusiastic audience. Armed with one of the year’s best singles in ‘Judge Judy and Executioner’ and some equally huge sounds on their debut EP, the band seemed set to make 2024 an even bigger success.

THE REAL GONE SINGLES BAR #23
Welcome back to the Real Gone Singles Bar, the place where we explore some of the individual mp3s that have landed in our inbox over the previous few weeks. A popular feature, the mixed bag approach at the Singles Bar has often allowed for coverage of things that people wouldn’t necessarily associate with the site. The selection this time around is a little more rock based in places, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t a couple of interesting twists, and a jazzy, downtempo track definitely provides one of the best tunes. We present the return of Big River with a very melodic track, some brilliant pop, an interesting take on a classic band, and more besides.
