Fuzzy post-punk band ("with 60s pop hook sensibilities") The K's hail from what they call 'a geographical eyesore' called Earlestown, near St Helens on Merseyside.
Over the last year they have been busy refining their sound, says guitarist Sam Craighan. "We rented a derelict warehouse and turned it into our own little recording den of warmness. The last year has been a crucial rite of passage for us, honing our craft prolifically and headlining numerous, albeit small time, rampacked local shows, when just a few months earlier we were getting kicked out of the venues we'd just played at for under-age drinking!" (Three of the band are still in their late teens, only drummer Adam officially a twentysomething.)
Support for their first online track, 'Black Money' has been positive, but, Sam adds, "we're keen to show people the more melodic, texture orientated post-punk sound we've been crafting in the studio." Which the band should be doing early in the New Year with a number of live shows planned, including dates in Liverpool and Leeds.
The K's are: Jamie Boyle - vocals/guitar, Sam Craighan - guitar/keys/vocals, Dexter Baker - bass, Adam Baldwin - drums.
