It’s safe to say The K’s are going places. Fast. And if you haven’t encountered The K’s impassioned bangers, then catch up. In the last 12 months alone, they’ve sold out a UK tour, and sold every ticket for their upcoming Manchester Academy show in under 24 hours. They opened the main stages at Isle of Wight and Neighbourhood Festivals, as well as gracing the main stages at Leeds, Reading & Kendal Calling, and tore the roof down at this year’s Tramlines, with hundreds unable to get into the big top to see them play. They’ve supported Liam Gallagher, James and Blondie, and their 13 date sellout UK & Ireland tour in the Spring led to a Royal Albert Hall appearance with Kasabian on their day off too.

But this pulsing live reputation shouldn’t overlook the sophistication that gives The K’s their immediately identifiable blueprint. Their debut single “Sarajevo” was one of the few rock & roll songs to namecheck Austro-Hungary, whilst notching up over 4 million streams in the process, and their recent single “Hoping Maybe” became a phone-lights-on live anthem that reached number 2 on the iTunes chart, kept off the top spot only by Miley Cyrus. With successive smash singles finding fans in ever wider audiences, their streaming figures are now comfortably in the millions and counting.

Getting a taste for the big rooms while on a UK-wide run with fellow northern success stories The Reytons (who are touring their recently certified UK No.1 album), The K’s will be hoping to take a leaf out of their book as they eye-ball the release of their own highly anticipated debut album ‘I Wonder If The World Knows’ next year. Speaking about the upcoming release, frontman Jamie Boyle says:

“The long wait is nearly over, and we are finally on the brink of releasing our debut album. “I Wonder If The World Knows” is a written journey throughout the last couple of years of our lives throughout the ups, the downs and everything in between. We’ve put our heart and soul into making the perfect record and we can’t wait for you to hear it.”

Due for release on March 22nd via thriving Manchester indie imprint LAB Records, standby for new music this November and further news from the band very soon…
