Album Notes

Kite are completely out to lunch. They are under the notion that the world cannot do without a band that sounds like The Police, UB40 and Crowded House all rolled into one, and have chosen the unlikeliest of launch pads for their musical moonshot. They can also demonstrate that climbing coconut trees is for trained rock musicians ONLY...and are reaching for the stars... even if they only turn up with coconuts.

Debut album 'Up In The Air' saw Kite working with the likes of Jeremy Harding (Sean Paul producer/manager) on their song 'Nice To Finally Meet You'. Sadly, it appears to have been Jeremy's last foray into rock. Pity. He was so nice in the studio. Nice shoes too.

Recent events include Kite song 'Firefly' featuring on US TV series Ghost Whisperer (with the 'fwaaaarrrr' Jennifer Love-Hewitt), and a local Barbadian department store ad. It has been widely agreed that the department store ad was the real coup d'Etat, such is the conservative nature of the island.

Kite have finished their follow-up album and it is to be released in April 2007, though the tunes will be streaming on their MySpace profile and band website sooner...

I always love Original and new music... Kite has that flavor. The mix of the island vibe with the pop, rock and a dash of hip hop. That is how alternative music should be played. Once they stay true to vibe they can make good music.

First saw Kite while in Barbados, instantly bought the CD (actually 2 copies, long story) and I'm glad I did. They have the ability to catch and keep your interest from track 1 through repeat all, to track 1 again. The only CD so far I've stayed in the car to sing along to, rather than go in the house. Be warned, you will sing along too. I wish the guys every success.

One of the few albums I can listen to and enjoy track to track without skipping. Definitely satisfied with my purchase, eagerly looking forward to the second opus. Keep it up...don't give it up!!!
