The Kooks have teamed up for a new single with lovelytheband – listen to ‘Jeanie’ below.

Opening with a minimalist pop groove and low-key synths, the tune is driven by the alternating vocals from Luke Pritchard and the latter’s Mitchy Collins.

The song is The Kooks’ first since the release of their 2022 album, ’10 Tracks To Echo In The Dark’.

Frontman Luke Pritchard said of the collaboration: “‘Jeanie’ is about all the unknown legends. She’s not asking for forgiveness or appreciation from the world, just getting on everyday, looking after her people and living in the moment.”

He also hinted that it may appear in future setlists on tour adding: “I’m so happy we got to collaborate on the track with lovelytheband, it’s been a beautiful experience. We hope you give it a spin, and connect with the track. And we look forward to bringing it on the road soon…”

Collins continued: “‘Jeanie’ lyrically mirrors my own journey chasing a dream of creating music for a living. The song serves as a reminder that you can create your own breaks.

“It’s an absolute pinch me moment for my band to be collaborating with The Kooks. They have had an influence on our songwriting and production since we began.”

Pritchard previously spoke about his band’s similarities with the Arctic Monkeys and praised the band’s “development”.

He said at the time: “It’s amazing their development and how they’ve managed to not look back. I think it’s a well trodden path and I think that people have to give a bit of time and space to artists.”

Pritchard went on to explain how he no longer really feels connected to some of the lyrics and emotion from The Kooks’ earlier work. “The thing with Arctic Monkeys where they are very similar to us as well, is that we’re the same age. Again, we were the next gen from the indie bands at the time, so we were very young,” he added.
