2017 Ones To Watch #1 – King No-One

King No-One

With 2016 over, we look ahead to what musical talent 2017 can offer, and with the masses of acts out there in the industry there is plenty for us to get excited about. Throughout January, ICM will be highlighting one new band each day and showing just why they should be on your music radar. Our 1st band is King No-One.

King No-One had a great year releasing incredible tracks such as ‘Halo’ and ‘Alcatraz’.

‘Alcatraz’ is a complete upbeat indie pop charmer. The single twists with a funky bassline and shimmers with bright guitars among vibrant danceable beats, giving the likes of The 1975 and Don Broco a run for their money.

‘Halo’ displays a band emanating creativity. The result is an introspective view of an artist looking for new avenues of expression. Their sharp melodic and rhythmic sound promises a lot.

In a Q & A with King No-One earlier in the year, 2016, we asked what music inspires them when writing music. King No-One frontman replied, “Really difficult question, if there is something it’ll be subconscious as the music I write doesn’t sound anything like the kind of music we listen too. Song inspiration always comes from emotions and particular feelings in given situations, sometimes even the lack of feeling in a moment where feelings are obliged.”

King No-one have also recently been awarded with our Greatest Discovery 2016 ICMAward.

From Street Performances to making appearances at some of the best inner city festivals in the UK, 50 BBC Introducing plays and NME club slots, King No-One have certainly got their name out there ready for 2017.

You can find King No-One on Facebook and Twitter!

We will be announcing a new band every day throughout the entirety of January and the ICM long list will be announced on February 1st.
