KID KAPICHI


release new single, ‘Worst Kept Secret’.



KK frontman,


Jack Wilson, explains: ‘‘‘Worst Kept Secret’ was the final song written for the album,

during a period of time where everything felt like it was clicking and coming together. We’d be listening to a bit of Richard Ashcroft and Unkle and this song came shortly afterwards.


“The lyrics speak for themselves. It’s about being in that nether zone of are we friends, or more? Both knowing it’s more, but neither able to fully commit or ask those questions.”


‘Worst Kept Secret’ is taken from forthcoming album, Fearless Nature, due out

January 16th, 2026, via Spinefarm. It’s an album riven with moments of self-doubt made by a band that has grown bold enough to show the bullet holes in their armour after years on the frontline.


Since coming together a decade ago in Hastings, KID KAPICHI have always been more brotherhood than band; like-minded musicians bound together by the belief that music

and message can happily co-exist, and that being proud of where you’re from should in no way limit your ambition or narrow your view of the world.


Fearless Nature was produced by Mike Horner and Ben Beetham (ex-Kid Kapichi guitarist), alongside the band, and mixed by George Perks.


Fearless Nature marks a new era for KID KAPICHI, following line-up changes and a creative reinvention. It captures a band reborn; louder, bolder and unafraid to push their sound into uncharted territory.





On the album, Jack shares: “We began writing the songs a year and a half ago. During that time, I think we all felt a lot of change on the horizon, which Eddie & I believe is reflected in this album. I personally was going through some of the darkest times of my life and listening back now I hear that fear, but it’s also comforting to know how quickly things can change for the better.


“I consider myself lucky to have gotten to the age I was at whilst writing this, having never experienced anything like that before. But once you do, it gives you a whole new understanding on life and what people mean when they say they’re really struggling.”


Jack concludes: “I’ve always looked outward for inspiration. The news. World affairs. What’s happening in our local communities and the feeling in the air, but this album was much more introspective, seeing your reflection as you look out the window rather

than what’s on the other side.”
