The South African TV on the Radio - I told you so...

UPDATE: BLK JKS's E.P. Mystery is released today - you can buy it on emusic now, or from their record company, Secretly Canadian fairly imminently I would imagine. Well worth it!

BLK JKS (pronouced 'black jacks' apparently) hail from Johannesburg, South Africa, and again, have that blend of African music, jazz, and general goodness that makes all this cross-cultural stuff that's floating around sound so good. I have to admit, to call them the South African TVOTR is a bit harsh, because it sounds as if they have quite a few more tricks up their sleeves (pun unintentional) Their new E.P. Mystery is due to be released in the States on the 10th March. Not too sure when it will make its way over to this side of the pond, but I will be definitely keeping an eye out, because their track Lakeside sounds amazing!
