There is going to be a very exciting show at The Masque Theatre in Liverpool on Friday 21^st October.

Kevin Critchley Outfit will be performing with Sense Of Sound Singers and an extended string section in an ambitious live show on an unprecedented scale for an unsigned band.  The night will see KCO unveil their new band name and launch a limited edition EP containing live recordings and material from a forthcoming studio album. 

With a performance at Chester Rocks described as the “...highlight of the day...” (Liverpool Live) as the band “...stole the show...” (Radio City), KCOhave continued to up the ante with a support slot for Sharon Corr on the Liverpool leg of her UK tour.  Their line up - cello and violins alongside drums, piano, bass, guitar and vocals-  results in a truly original sound that blends film soundtrack, world music and energetic acoustic rock.  

Singing alongside KCO will be members of Sense of Sound Singers.  The choir have been previously involved in performances with Brian Eno, Damon Albarn and Massive Attack in support of Greenpeace, Seal and John Bon Jovi at The Royal Variety Show and grand finalists for BBC “Choir of the Year” competition.  

Amongst the special guests on stage with KCO are violinists Christoph Demetriou (Shrek 2/Counting Crows, Seal, Jessicas Ghost) and Greta Svabo Bech (Picture Book), as well as backing vocals from Norwegian singers Kaya and Grethe Børsum.

The night will also showcase three other diverse acts that KCO have chosen especially for this event.   Deafen The Creatures are an acoustic/electronic 4 piece whose singer Elle won MOJO’s “New Voice Award 2011”.  Shy & The Fight, from Chester and Wrexham, recently had airplay on BBC Radio 1and featured on the Jack Wills summer advertising campaign this year and whose more soulful nu-folk has made the band firm favourites with BBC Radio Wales.  Finally, Bird will be performing their unique brand of atmospheric folk, which fuses influences as broad as PJ Harvey, Portishead, Bat for Lashes and Kate Bush.

KCO have also had the pleasure of supporting artists as diverse as Seth Lakeman, Mark Morriss (Bluetones), Ian McNabb, Amsterdam and Mica Paris.
