The Kooks are one of the most popular British guitar pop bands. They have made a name for themselves in the UK and across Europe over the last few years, with a string of hit songs such as She Moves in Her Own Way, Always Where I Need to Be and many others.
The Kooks' major influences are the '60s and '70s pop rock and the '80s post punk. Their latest album, Junk of the Heart, released in 2011, combines a variety of different influences, from electronic music and hip hop to the Rolling Stones and classical string quartets.
