Shine On :::: The Kooks.

The Kooks are an English indie rock band formed in Brighton, East Sussex, in 2004. Formed by Luke Pritchard (vocals/guitar), Hugh Harris (lead guitar), Paul Garred (drums), and Max Rafferty (bass guitar), the lineup of the band remained constant until 2008 and the departure of Rafferty. Dan Logan was drafted in as a temporary replacement, until Peter Denton joined the band on a permanent basis in October 2008.

A self-described pop band, their music is primarily influenced by the 1960s British Invasion movement and post-punk revival of the new millennium. With songs described as catchy as hell The Kooks have experimented in several genres including rock, Britpop, pop, reggae, and ska, at times being described as a less severe Arctic Monkeys.

Hello again Jim,yes,the Kooks are a pretty decent sounding modern band,but they are heavily influenced by 60's music ! I chose this track of theirs just for the title really,it's virtually the same title as the song originally in the L & H clip,if you see what I mean ! lol

Many thanks for those thumbs ! Seeya later,,Mick :)
