Over the years Dublin-born David Kitt has more than proved himself as a writer and a performer. Kittser first stole our attention with the tingling soft focus home-recorded debut album Small Moments on Rough Trade in August 2000, freely outshining the favoured acoustica movement of the time with the sheer depth of feel of his songs.

His second album, The Big Romance, burst into bloom in May of 2001 on the Blanco y Negro label revealing a myriad of sounds; quietly fizzing and popping German-informed electronics, impressionistic and elemental lyrical portraits, composite vocal harmonies and driving atmospheric guitars.

With his third album, Square One, Kittser took his music to a plane where wonder and naiveté breathed in harmony with skilful modern pop song writing and production. A collection of love songs and a collection of pop songs the album documented a songwriter coming of age, applying his previous exploration of exciting new sounds and techniques into a record of unabashed clarity and soul.

Over his career so far David Kitt has been nominated for a host of awards (he won the Best Male category in the Meteor Ireland Music Awards in 2002 and was nominated in 2 categories at the same awards in 2004) and has featured strongly in the Hot Press readers’ and critics’ polls since his first release.
