The KBC are an indie dance-rock band from Preston, England. The band has managed to come up with a very energetic almost disco/house-like type of rock, which impossible not to dance to.
Their debut album "On The Beat!" was released 10 January 2007 in Japan only. The band is planning a European release in the summer of 2007 with possible newly recorded tracks and exclusives.
James Mulholland (vocals, keyboards, and guitar), Ric Ormerod (bass) and Michael Brown (drums) were in the same class at school together and are currently signed to DIY Manchester label High Voltage Sounds. Since their limited debut 7”, Trippin, hit the independent record store shelves, the band have established themselves across the UK and Europe, playing alongside ¡Forward, Russia!, The Sunshine Underground, The Paddingtons and The Strokes. They also run their own nightclub, "Club Sandwich", in their hometown, Preston. They were handpicked to play the unsigned stage at Glastonbury in 2005, and have since enjoyed radio support by Marc Riley, Zane Lowe, XFM and Steve Lamacq.
The band is scheduled to play at the "British Music Week" in Cologne (April 27th) and Hamburg (April 28th) alongside The Holloways, The Pigeon Detectives, The Whip and Sugarbabes.
– Not to be confused with KBC (a Belgian rap group from Chris Van Den Durpel) –
