The Kick

The Kick stand as a distinctive presence in the legacy of the UK's 1980s mod scene. Hailing from the United Kingdom, this group made their mark with the 1984 EP "Lets Get Back Together," a release that reflects their sharp musical sensibilities. Tracks such as "A Shot in the Dark," "Armchair Politician," and the infectious "Rock 'n' Roll Gypsy" showcase their ability to blend melodic hooks with a quintessentially British edge, underscoring why their recordings continue to attract genre enthusiasts and collectors alike.

Known for their authentic mod sound, The Kick’s catalogue echoes with energetic guitar work and compelling lyricism, setting them apart within the vibrant live music tradition of their era. Songs like "Stuck on the Edge of a Blade" and "Julie London" are testament to their creative versatility, navigating both punchy rhythms and reflective moods. Their enduring appeal lies in their ability to capture the spirit of live concerts, making each performance a memorable experience for fans of classic UK mod music.

In July 2026, The Kick will headline at THE FACTORY LIVE in Worthing as part of THE FACTORY LOCAL event, further cementing their reputation for dynamic live shows.
