The KBC - 'Sherlock Groove Holmes'Digital Singles | 29 May 2006
On May 28th 2006 PlayLouder Recordings continues its series of regular digital releases with ‘Sherlock Groove Holmes, the third single from Preston trio The KBC. On the cusp of their twenties, The KBC have already had enthusiastic radio support from Messrs. Lamacq, Lowe and Lard for their two singles to date, which set forth their self-imposed mission of sculpting “super-charged indie” through a shared passion for soul.
In 2005, just months after the release of their debut single ‘Trippin’ / ‘Day of Disillusion’ (described by Drowned In Sound as “all spiraling riffage and pulsating beats”), The KBC supported The Strokes across the UK as well as playing the unsigned stage at Glastonbury Festival.
With a keyboard that cost 50p and beats knocked into shape by a rhythm section in thrall to the sounds of Motown, ‘Sherlock Groove Holmes’ continues The KBC’s bold intent, casting briar and deerstalker aside to take tumultuous, whipped-down and devious white boy funk for some dark moves on a trembling dance floor.
