Kid Kapichi Worst Kept Secret Single Out Now
Hastings rock duo Kid Kapichi – Jack Wilson (vocals/guitar) and Eddie Lewis (drums) – release “Worst Kept Secret” on January 8, 2026, the final single ahead of third album Fearless Nature (January 16 via Spinefarm). Inspired by Richard Ashcroft/Unkle vibes during a creative peak, the track captures the limbo of unspoken romance: “Both knowing it’s more, but neither able to fully commit or ask those questions.” Jack: “‘Worst Kept Secret’ was the final song written… The lyrics speak for themselves.”
Following “Rabbit Hole” (dreamy video out now), it previews an introspective LP born from personal darkness and change. Jack: “I was going through some of the darkest times… but it’s also comforting to know how quickly things can change… This album was much more introspective.”
Produced by Mike Horner/Ben Beetham (ex-guitarist) with the band, mixed by George Perks – marking a “new era” post-lineup shifts, louder/bolder sound. Kerrang! cover stars this week: Read intimate chat here.
