Ilya K Unleashed This Weekend

Mick (Ilya K)

Ilya K are three individuals on a quest for a common goal. The goal? To “write, record and perform great original music”.

Since the first time I met the band (over 2 years ago now at this stage), I’ve continued to be impressed by their musical endeavours.

Things paid off for them last year as they were crowned winners of the Murphy’s Live competition (last summer). As as result, they got to release ‘Empire Is A Cave’ on FIFA REcords last November, the idea being to release their debut album early this year.

They do have a new single on the way, ‘The Pink Blood’, and they’re also flat out gigging for the next couple of weeks.

One of those gig stops takes them into the city this Saturday night as they’ll be upstairs in The Pumphouse. If you’re around, drop by, you won’t be disappointed!
