THE GREAT ESCAPE SPOTLIGHT SHOW
The Kooks bring their alternative rock and indie pop set to TGE BEACH for The Great Escape Spotlight Show.
UK band
The Kooks have carved out a distinctive space in British indie music since their formation in 2004. Hailing from the United Kingdom, this alternative rock and indie pop band first found stardom with timeless hits like “Naive” and “She Moves In Her Own Way”, tracks which continue to resonate with listeners worldwide. Their catalogue includes celebrated albums such as “10 Tracks to Echo in the Dark” (2022), the anniversary reissue of their classic debut “Inside In, Inside Out”, and the live recording “Live at the Moth Club”.
Recent live appearances affirm The Kooks’ enduring appeal, with the band supporting Biffy Clyro at Glasgow Green for TRNSMT in July 2025. They have also headlined prominent venues such as The Piece Hall in Halifax, Open Air Theatre in Scarborough, and Delamere Forest in Cheshire. Known for commanding both festival stages and intimate gigs, their energetic concerts attract fans eager to experience their infectious blend of indie pop and alternative rock.
Looking ahead, The Kooks are set to headline the Rock N Roll Circus at Don Valley Bowl in Sheffield in August 2026, and will bring their acclaimed live show to Dreamland in Margate and The Great Escape Spotlight Show at TGE Beach. In June 2026, they will appear as a support act at the Isle of Wight Festival, sharing billing with high-profile acts including Lewis Capaldi and Calvin Harris.
