Miles Kane is back with new album ‘Sunlight In The Shadows’

Produced by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys, ‘Sunlight In The Shadows’, is 12 tracks of psyche infused rock-n-roll. Layered with lush, screeching guitars and packed to the brim with hooks, the album delicately toes the line between raw, energetic rock and laid-back crooning anthems, all with a sprinkling of Miles’ signature rippled tremolo guitar and a whole lot of fun.

“All roads, over 20 years, have led here” Miles says of the journey to creating ‘Sunlight In The Shadows’. “Dan and I love mixing T. Rex, Motown and The Easybeats and the result is this record. When we were chatting and sharing references, we were so similar in taste it was frightening, and you can hear that shared passion through the music. I can’t wait to take it out on the road. It’s an album that needs to be played live.”

Teaming up with a host of incredible musicians for the record Kane and Auerbach wrote the album’s songs with contributions from Pat McLauglin, Daniel Tashian and The Black Keys drummer Patrick Carney. Auerbach sings backing vocals and plays on every track, as part of the record’s guitar army with Tom Bukovac, guitarist Nick Bockrath of Cage The Elephant and Barrie Cadogan from British garage futurist Little Barrie.

Born in The Wirral, across the River Mersey from Liverpool, he was 18 when he joined his first band, The Little Flames in 2004, touring with Arctic Monkeys and The Coral. Kane stepped forward in his next band, becoming the singer, lead guitarist and main writer of The Rascals. Another tour with Arctic Monkeys led to The Last Shadow Puppets being born. The British singer-songwriter is an established artist in the UK with five top 20 albums of pocket-dynamite pop and psychedelic groove as well as two UK number one LPs as half of The Last Shadow Puppets with Arctic Monkeys’ Alex Turner.
