I was walking in NYC 10+ years ago and saw this band performing a street fair as far as I can remember. What I witnessed was two energetic frontman from Ireland wooing the crowd. I asked them for a demo and I posted them on Kings in 2003. Anyhow, I just heard they signed to Interscope and will hit the road with P!NK in October, and November and will headline in Australia.
Check out the video for the track Get On It by The Kin.
