Samurai Kip is a genre lasagne, meticulously melded in a jazz-fired kiln.
The band began informally through subtle garage guitar jams which later built into virtuosic chilled out sound with a rough King-Krulesque vocal tying it all together. They later added further jazz sensibility with trombone.
Quickly building a reputation for their uplifting and talented live shows, the Kip began selling out Liverpool’s grassroots venues and attracting the attention of local indie music fans as well as jazz comrades from further afield.
Having seen more online streams of their music than ever before in 2020, the band now find themselves anxious to get back into live shows as quickly as possible. In the meantime, alongside working on new music for releases well into 2021, they’re sharpening their filmmaking skills through short comedy sketches, often to be seen on their instagram account.
Samurai Kip is: Aidan Maguire (Lead Vocals/Guitar), Jamie Lindberg (Bass/Backing Vocals), Michael Lindberg (Drums), Charly Reed (Trombone)
