Location: Sheffield and Liverpool, England
Formed: 2007
This side-project/collaboration between The Arctic Monkeys’ Alex Turner and The Rascals Miles Kane, began when Kane’s former band, The Little Flames, toured with the Monkeys in the summer of 2005.
Kane and Turner bonded over a love of the same music, notably early David Bowie, and made the decision to start making music together.
What came from that is The Age of Understatement, an album that has received critical praise and won MOJO Magazine’s “Breakthrough Award” for 2007.
Tune in to New Music Monday on KINK.FM to hear “Standing Next To Me”
