KOVAK are Annelies Van de Velde (Vocals), Karl Bray (Guitars), Darren Bray (Drums) and Martin White (Keys).

It seems everyone who gets a taste of KOVAK’s energetic disco pop always comes back for more… After being voted ‘Top 10 Critics Choice’ of NXNE by ‘Now’ magazine last year, the band have been invited once more to play at the prestigeous industry showcase event in Toronto (Canada) this June, but this time they will also play live on CP24′s ‘Noon Show’ in front of 1.2 million viewers. After supporting Toyah on her recent tour, another date is already in the diary, as well as a mini support tour with 80s pop legend Hazel O’Connor in the autumn. Having kicked off 2012 with the release of their catchy single Killer Boots and a vibrant video to boot, as well as another energetic support slot for Hard Fi, the year is shaping up very well for the Brighton electro poppers.

Amidst all this, the band are busy recording their 2nd album with dance producer Andy Gray (Hard Fi, Paul Oakenfold, Gary Numan, Enter Shikari) at Arreton Manor, a haunted 15th Century house on the Isle Of Wight using a museum’s worth of analogue vintage synths. The new album is due for release later this year.

KOVAK had over 30000 hits on their last video for pop-tastic single ‘I’ll Be Good To You’ from debut album Heroes & High Heels. Their very danceable track ‘Sex Electric’ from the same album is also featured in Michael Madson’s film ‘The Big I Am’ and their music has been used on HBO’s ‘Make It Or Break It’ as well.

They’ve been running their very own successful electro dance night in Brighton; ‘Club KOVAK’ over the years, with DJ guests such as ‘The Orb’ and The Go! Team. Club KOVAK will be back with more electro glow sticks and disco dancing this spring/summer.

A truly energetic and colourful live band, KOVAK are more than ready to dance, sing, jump about and run on the spot in a venue near you.
