Kensington

Lets talk about the band, Kensington, an indie rock outfit from Utrecht in the Netherlands. They walk out to this receptive crowd whilst a drone plays and the lights flash whilst they do some last minute tuning on their instruments. It’s a one to three four from the drummer and they are straight into down tempo track “All for Nothing”. It’s fantastic that from start to finish not only are this audience fully engaged with what they’re doing but there is always without fail an audience singing along. “We Are the Young” picks up the tempo significantly, the beat emulating that of a disco beat with an off-beat hi-hat mixed with a four to the floor bass line. The singer, Casper Starreveld appears as quite a dark person, in his long black cardigan and black fedora upon his head. I’ve got to be honest, their sound is absolutely fantastic and completely what I’m into with the huge guitars adopting chorus and delay sounds, every riff being something that is sang along to. Such a fantastic atmosphere.

Their concert was amazing! I have got to know them in the summer when I came across one of their songs on YouTube, "Send Me Away". I listened to it all the time and a few more from that album.
Then in October I saw that they are coming, and I gave a ticket to one of my friends who got to know them through me. Then by February I nearly forgot about it. I had to study a lot, but I still went to see how it was....this was the best decision of the week! They were fantastic, made the crowd cheer and sing and dance, I felt amazed by the feeling that hit me with them, which they brought to us yesterday!!
Now I can't stop listening to their songs and I can't wait for summer when I can hear them again!!!

Kensington live ? what to say but WAOU , they are amazngly energetic and funny on stage, and Niles, the drummer, always finish his set bare-chested, that's a big plus! But without kidding they are an amazing band to see live, i can only recommend you to go and dance in the public while they make you forget where you are, viva la Kensington!

Dit was onze vierde show en the best ever! Wij kijken er al naar uit jullie terug te zien in april / Leuven - Depot en in de
Ziggo in november 2020 en hopelijk nog ergens tussenin. Deeply in love with your music. Groetjes van twee overjaarse belgjes.

Voor mij concert nummer 10. Dit concert krijgt van mij een 10+ wat heb ik genoten, kippenvel momenten gehad.
En concert nummer 11 staat al op de planning pinkpop 2020. Thanks Kensington voor de gevoelens die jullie met de muziek op mij over brengen.
