OK Go

KOKO, London (13th February 2015)
With support from Oscar and the Wolf

How did I not know about OK Go sooner?

That’s a good question; the boys (Damian Kulash, Tim Nordwind, Andy Ross and Dan Konopka) have been together for the last 17 years! Sometimes though a good thing goes unnoticed until you stumble across it unaware.

So what did you find?

Formed in Midwest America (Chicago to be precise), the boys have experimented with various sounds throughout their career but are largely described as an alternative rock band – something which is evident when you consider they have toured with the likes of Kaiser Chiefs to the Music to Panic! At The Disco in the past.

Prides

Heaven, London (12th February 2015)
With support from Model Aeroplanes

This last week has seen us discover two great new acts (Model Aeroplanes and Oscar and the Wolf) as they performed as support for two of the headliners we originally went to see. Prides were an act we discovered in the same way; supporting Foxes at KOKO back in May 2014.

Hailing from Glasgow, the trio are fairly new to the scene having only formed in 2013. The boys have quickly built their own following and have since featured on the likes of Radio 1’s Playlist and even Made In Chelsea‘s music list (Seeds You Sow featured on Series 6, Episode 11 – make of that as you will…) As a result, they were easily able to fill Heaven’s 1,800 capacity on Thursday evening.
