Kansas Smitty's

Kansas Smitty's New music come soon. Kansas Smitty’s is a place. A unique place unlike anywhere else that we know of. They all look forward to playing live again very much.

It’s built around the two simple principles of real people and great music. We launched the Kansas Smitty’s bar in 2015 on Broadway Market as a home for the Kansas Smitty’s House Band who had already been making a name for themselves since 2013. Kansas Smitty’s (as they are now known) have since garnered fans from across the music community and beyond for their ambitious, original and cinematic mu

sic. Their fifth studio album will be out on !K7/Ever Records in 2021. Broadway Market remained the band’s home for the best part of five years. It became many other musicians and listeners home from home in east London. Many important events happened there, maybe one of these events even happened to you. Sadly the onset of the Covid era forced us to leave that place and to relocate. This launched a new chapter in the Smitty’s journey. We love music and we especially love jazz music. To keep doing what we love we created KSTV. This is a new online space for live jazz where five-nights-a-week our handpicked selection of London based musicians work their way through all the moods jazz has to offer. Whether your favourite flavour is Ray Charles or Charles Lloyd, we've got you covered. KSTV is another way for us to keep doing what we set out to do nearly ten years ago. To create, nurture and develop a home for a community of musicians. Kansas Smitty's has now successfully fostered a family of musicians for a decade, as well as many bar tenders, directors, designers, camera operators and producers. We intend to keeping doing this for many years to come. You can learn more about how to support us on that mission here. We think a lot about making Smitty’s a place where people can come to do their best work. Onstage and offstage. We hope this shows in the experiences that our customers and audiences have when they come to one of our shows, buy one of our records or watch one of the performances on KSTV. However you interact with Kansas Smitty’s, online or offline, analogue or digital, it was made with care, intention and love.

This is pretty exciting. Rolling Stone France reviewed the record 😱 it’s never not cool to see people’s responses to the music. In fact we’d love to hear your words / thoughts and responses drop them so In the comments. ✍️

RS says: “This new album colorful and tonic jazz, filled with African influences, blues chords and film soundtracks’ surges celebrating the precious alloy of bold and innovative jazz with a seductive "old school" side."
