Video: The Kooks premiere ‘Down’


The Kooks have posted the official video for their hip-hop inspired comeback single ‘Down‘ – have a watch in full on Live4ever through the snapshot below.

‘Down’ was worked on with a slew of other tracks by Luke Pritchard and hip-hop artist Inflo in both London and Los Angeles in anticipation of following 2011’s ‘Junk Of The Heart‘, and has been described by Pritchard thus: “With this record we didn’t do any rehearsing beforehand. I’d write a song with Inflo or on my own, put it up and we’d all play over it. There was a real freedom to the process.”

The Kooks plan on taking their new material out on the road in May for a short run of UK dates. Those begin at the ABC in Glasgow on May 6th, and continue on to the Manchester Ritz on the 7th, London’s Electric Ballroom on the 8th and finally the Birmingham Institute on the 9th.
