Reserve your placeWelcome to the world of The K’s. If you’re unfamiliar with one of the biggest underground success stories in rock & roll, make yourself at home. The K’s sold out their debut headline tour months in advance including the 3000-capacity Manchester Albert Hall. They’ve opened the Main Stage to 8000 people at Neighbourhood Festival, opened the Isle of Wight Festival Main Stage and performed on the Main Stage of Reading and Leeds Festival 2022. Their streams are comfortably in the millions- not bad for a band who’ve only released seven singles. As singer/guitarist Jamie puts it: We’ve crafted our own sound. Even if I’m not singing, you’ll know it’s a K’s song. The songs rich lyricism of everyday life continue the tradition of Paul Weller, Stiff Little Fingers, The Strokes and The Libertines. It’s clear The K’s are going to keep growing, a cult sensation ready to blossom in the mainstream. It’s an irresistible, irrefutable spirit, welcoming to anyone who wants to escape into a better, more hopeful world.

Reserve your placeThe new album ‘Ourselves, as we are’ from Carlos Cipa sees nine short piano pieces, created in ultimately just a few weeks, as a "conscious introspection", a kind of zooming in on the object of contemplation. Cipa took one other decisive conceptual approach: to play as quietly as possible. The fascinating result is nothing less than the discovery of a new piano sound world, which according to Cipa, allows “an even deeper empathy with the instrument”. As Cipa points out, “Today, it can be more radical to make a quiet piano album than a totally complex and intricate piece of music.” Undoubtedly, the multifaceted sound palette and disarmingly raw and fragile emotional elements make the music of ‘Ourselves’. In the age of fake authenticity, remakes, and pieces commissioned for high-reach mood playlists, this approach is perhaps one of the few remaining ways to create art: to reveal our true selves. Radically personal. Radically intimate. Radically honest.
