KONL

Leeds prog-jazz-rock-psyche-funk legends Shaku are back in 2023 with a new single in January and then a UK tour in February. Their hometown gig is at their spiritual home in Leeds, Brudenell Social Club, and it will be their first appearance at the venue since their seated unplugged show way back in August 2021. The new single is called "Brush Your Own Teeth" and features Leeds alt-pop/soul singer Alice Kim (with backing vocals from two more great Leeds singers, Lady and Matilde Mirotti). The single is out worldwide on January 2nd with the video for it dropping at the beginning of February as the UK tour begins.

Support comes from Belfast-born, Leeds based producer/songwriter KONL. Having gained critical acclaim playing across the UK and gaining hundreds of thousands of views for his online videos, he released his first EP "Think About It" in 2021, mixing vintage funk and soul sounds with contemporary pop sensibilities. The combination of toxically funky rhythms and sweet, humorous songwriting means his music falls somewhere in the valley carved out by artists like John Mayer or Vulfpeck. Like his musical idol Prince, KONL sings, writes, produces and plays all the instruments on his releases. This show will be a solo performance that will showcase all the many musical talents of the artist currently known as KONL. Get down early to check out another Leeds DIY music legend.
