Kyte comprise Nick Moon (vocals), Tom Lowe (guitars and keyboards), Scott Hislop (drums). Their earlier musical output was often labelled shoegazing (or neo-shoegazing) and post rock but they have since moved into a more electro and pop influenced sound. Their debut single, "Planet", was released in 2007, the b-side of which, "Boundaries", was used in a trailer for the television series The Sopranos in the United States. Their debut album was released in 2008 on Kids Records (UK) / Erased Tapes Records (EU) to generally positive reviews. The band toured the United Kingdom between March and May 2008 and appeared at some of the Summer festivals the same year. In April 2009 they released their second album Science For The Living in Japan. The two disc Japan release featured tracks taken from their 2008 Two Sparks, Two Stars EP, with the remaining tracks being new material. The bonus disc included a remix from The Joy Formidable of the opening track on Disc 1 "Eyes Lose Their Fire".
The band also performed at the 10th Anniversary Summer Sonic Festival in Japan.
On 19 April 2010, they released a new album titled Dead Waves to mostly positive reviews in the media. A new album titled Love to be Lost is expected between August and September of 2012.
