British Summertime In A Tin
Swaying along on a breeze of loosely strummed guitar riffs and laid backed vocals that are half sung half spoken; ‘Shine On’ is typical summertime Kooks at their best. The second single to be taken from their latest album, Konk, ‘Shine On’ skips affectionately by radiating a sense of sun drenched cheer that will leave you incapable of resisting a sneaky sing along. With a swirl of laid back nonchalance sprinkled amongst lovely melodies that appealing beckon, ‘Shine On’ is reminiscent of The Kinks, oozing a sixties beat that jangles with glee amongst lyrics that are edged with a meaningful undercurrent to intrigue and inspire.
British summertime in a tin minus the dread of an imminent downpour, ‘Shine On’ is bursting with feel good vibes to have you in the festival mood even if you are destined to spend the whole time in wellies. Set to be sung loudly across festival fields, ‘Shine On’ is destined to be a festival favourite regardless of your opinion of the band.
