Kit Trigg - fuzzed-out riffs, blues-soaked swagger, and pure modern rock 'n' roll

Later this year, the cellar will shake to the sound of fuzzed-out riffs, blues-soaked swagger,sweet sweet harmonies and pure modern rock 'n' roll fire as Kit Trigg crash into the intimate room of Barnoldswick Music & Arts Centre for what promises to be one of the loudest, sweatiest and most electrifying nights of the year.

If you've been searching for that feeling rock music used to give you — the feeling of danger, volume, groove, sweat dripping off the walls and riffs that hit you square in the chest — then Kit Trigg are the real deal. No gimmicks. No backing tracks. No polished pop-rock gloss. Just three musicians making an outrageous amount of noise with groove, attitude, and the kind of chemistry that can only happen when a band truly means every single note they play.

Fronted by the magnetic and wildly charismatic Kit Trigg himself, alongside Max Rhead on drums and Adam Thorn on bass, the trio are rapidly becoming one of the most talked-about young bands on the British rock circuit. Their sound is a glorious collision of heavy blues-rock, garage chaos, desert-rock swagger and vintage hard-rock soul — somewhere between Reef, Beastie Boys, Hendrix, Chilli Peppers and Wolfmother — yet entirely their own beast.

One minute they're laying down swampy, fuzz-drenched riffs that sound like they crawled out of a smoke-filled Detroit basement in 1971… the next they're exploding into huge anthemic choruses, psychedelic groove breakdowns and pounding rhythmic storms that feel tailor-made for festival fields and packed club rooms alike.

Tracks like "Goin for Glory", "Grow with the Flow" and "Snake in the Grass" have already started turning serious heads across the UK rock underground, with support coming from the likes of Planet Rock and the festival circuit, while their live reputation is growing at frightening speed.

And live… that's where Kit Trigg truly become something else entirely. This is not polite background music. This is primal, loud, groove-heavy rock 'n' roll played by a band who look like they're having the absolute time of their lives onstage — and who drag the audience along with them every single night.

Reviewers at Steelhouse Festival described the band as "raw, joyful chaos with every note," praising Kit Trigg's ability to fuse "Hendrix swagger, Chili Peppers groove, and garage rock grit."

Meanwhile, Planet Rock's review of Steelhouse Festival highlighted the band's "warm nu-hippy love," calling Kit Trigg "someone we'll be seeing more of."

Metal Planet Music praised the trio's professionalism and explosive energy during Steelhouse Festival 2025, singling out Kit's improvisational guitar work, tone, and feel while describing the band as "young pros" capable of instantly winning over a crowd.

There's something deeply refreshing about Kit Trigg. In an era where so much modern rock can feel over-produced and over-calculated, these lads sound gloriously alive. You can hear the amps humming, the speakers rattling, the strings buzzing and the sheer reckless joy of three musicians throwing themselves headfirst into the music.

Expect massive riffs bouncing off stone cellar walls. Expect blues preacher vocals, psychedelic jams, fuzz pedals glowing like they're about to melt, and a rhythm section capable of shaking pint glasses clean off the bar upstairs at McCullough's Irish Bar.

This is the new blood of British rock music. Young guitar heroes with old souls. A band standing proudly in the great lineage of loud British power trios while dragging the sound kicking and screaming into the modern age. And the scary thing? They're only just getting started.

Catch them now before the arenas and festival headline slots come calling.

Because one day people will say: "I saw Kit Trigg back when they tore the roof off Barnoldswick Muisicand Arts Centre"
