childhood friends linda and mpumi grew up on the same block in johannesburg's east rand, where they taught themselves guitar. forming a band in 2000, early blk jks shows and recordings were remarkable for their stacks of guitar drone and head nodding beats. it was with the addition of bassist molefi and drummer tshepang - both of soweto - that blk jks began work with a fresh approach and plunged into its current universe of sound. heavy club dates and festival gigs followed as they band earned a loyal following across the country. the limited edition november 2007 release of the 'lakeside' vinyl-only 10" marked the band' international debut, selling at some of the world's finest record shops. this debut 10" release is now out of print. landing on the cover of fader magazine and a trip to the us in the spring of 2008 sparked sessions at the famed electric lady studios with brandon curtis of secret machines at the controls. the 'mystery ep' that resulted is available now on vinyl in limited quantities. on secretly canadian.
