Kenickie

From: Sunderland, England

Active: 1995–1998

I first heard of them: on Addicted to Noise, a music web site back in the day

Sound: Sort of a ’90s British version of the Go-Go’s.  The fact that Britain’s big cultural export of 1997 was the Spice Girls and not Kenickie shows that there is something seriously wrong with our trade agreements.

Further listening: Kenickie only had two albums; here’s a song off each:

“Robot Song” (1997)
“Weeknights” (1998)
