For Fans Of Rudimental, Meute, Fred Again...

Local, Stoke-based KiLNE is a unique new band that bridges the gap between traditional big band music and electronic beats. Made up of equal numbers of drums and brass players and often performing as a 20-piece band, KiLNE has earned praise for its high-quality brass arrangements, performed by real instruments using top players from jazz, big band, brass band and classical.

KiLNE was founded by musicians Danny Shaw and Ben Oakes in Stoke, using the skills of local musicians and styled on the traditional town centre parade bands that Danny was already working with.

KILNE has re-interpreted hits by Peggy Gou, Rudimental, Fred Again, and Flux Pavilion, amongst others and the accompanying ambitious videos have been shared extensively on social media, earning them a legion of new fans.

In response to demand, KiLNE are doing their first ever headline dates in November 2026, including this home-town show at Keele SU! Expect to hear songs from their catalogue and new live exclusive tracks.
