BMI presents: KITE THIEF + support from Reawaken | Elby | Bench

Kite Thief, a high-voltage expanse of catharsis; an ecstatic space of rage, and a playful moment in time to lose yourself, without fear. Emanating from Bristol, the five-piece blend their diverse influences with the spice of disrupting & confronting toxic social norms. Their melting pot of intoxicating melodies, pummeling rhythms, & unrelenting riffs forges a captivating vibration that you can’t help being absorbed by.

We are thrilled to welcome back Reawaken, who were really popular with our audiences and have even filmed one of their music videos in our space! A hard hitting, female fronted band from Southampton, they are able to capture the attention of any audience with our harmonious eerie tones and bewitching stage presence. For fans of Halestorm, Flyleaf, Alter Bridge and The Pretty Reckless

Elby also makes a return to the Creation Space having made her debut with us as support for Will Varley during Independent venue week. An emerging indie acoustic singer-songwriter. Drawing comparisons to artists like Sheryl Crow and Brandi Carlile, Elby’s music often bridges pop, classic rock, soul, and blues. Her lyrics focus heavily on authentic storytelling, tackling everything from light-hearted whimsy to profound heartbreak.

Benchy and the Gazers make Gazey-dream pop you could misplace important documents to: Benchy and the Gazers are a shoegaze-inspired 4 piece band that combine high-energy riffs with thick, migraine inducing walls of sound. Ideal for dissociating and/or busting a move or two.

Domesday complete the line-up; a four piece metal actfrom Basingstoke, playing a mix of originals and covers, and making a name for themselves on the Hampshire/Surrey live ​circuit
