Next month on Friday 8th November, Rizzle Kicks are set to perform their first headline show in nearly a decade at London’s iconic KOKO in Camden. The highly sought after show sold out in less than a minute, with fans eager to see the duo’s first performance back as a duo.
Rizzle Kicks, returned in style earlier this year with comeback single ‘Javelin’ which saw the pair reunite for their first new music in over nine years. A natural evolution of the duo’s original sound that won over so many initially; a mature, jazzy, R&B/pop amalgam with Jordan’s trademark charismatic lyricism paired with Harley’s smooth vocals. Rizzle Kicks then delivered a continuation of their mature and evolved sound on new track ‘Gumdrops’. Offering a nuanced discussion about masculinity and lad culture, the track’s smooth bassline weaves between Jordan and Harley’s vocals as they capture the bittersweet essence of adolescence.
Gumdrops and Javelin are taken from a forthcoming project that sees Rizzle Kicks return to the pop music space sober, both in love and equipped with life lessons, self awareness and maturity they've built on separately, all the while retaining their sense of humour and humanity that always set them apart from other artists.
Their music and bright personalities were synonymous with summer, sparking the creation of the phrase ‘Rizzle Kicks Weather’, and seeing the pair embedded in the cultural zeitgeist of the country. After a hiatus to work on solo endeavours, the duo are now re-energised and poised to reclaim their place as one of Britain’s most entertaining duos.
