The Alice Kona Band from Belfast have been described as “the ones to watch for 2011”¹ and carry the mantle of “one of the coolest bands in Belfast”². Their popularity on the Belfast music scene has rocketed in an unprecedented short space of time – an indication that they are destined for big things.

"The missing link between angular indie-folk and bootboy stomp-pop, these Sunderland lads' satirical songs pack an emotional punch" - The Guardian
Dubbed the "sound of young Sunderland", the band look like a gang, and their painfully tight drainpipes justify their claim to have the "best trousers in pop". Just as important, they have a clutch of anthems made to learn and sing. Their stomping sound – which is surely scientifically impossible to dislike – dips into Dexys circa Searching for the Young Soul Rebels, mid-period Clash, 60s pop, Orange Juice, northern soul, romance and literature without loitering anywhere.
