The Little Kicks
The Little Kicks are a band from Aberdeen, Scotland.
Combining soaring vocal harmonies and infectious guitar hooks with the distinctive warmth of analogue synthesizers, The Little Kicks create an exciting melody-driven sound, as engaging on record as it is live.

The Little Kicks have received airplay on BBC Radio 1 (Greg James), BBC 6 Music (Lauren Laverne & Nemone) and BBC Radio Scotland while the band have also been invited to perform live sessions for the Vic Galloway, Ricky Ross, Roddy Hart and Janice Forsyth shows, as well as a Quay Session live from the BBC Scotland television studios at Pacific Quay, Glasgow.

In 2017 the band were shortlisted in the Best Musical Group category at the Sunday Herald Scottish Culture Awards, having toured regularly with great success across the UK and Europe.
