Leading with a soulful voice that couldn’t be more relevant to the current musical climate in the UK come Jakil with their track ‘Look Like Gold‘ A strong social media presence is already in place and their stunningly shot accompanying video is racking up views by the thousands; Jakil manage to deliver intimacy and groove in their latest work. Released on December 16th, 2013 and available as a free download on soundcloud,‘Look Like Gold’ ensured a strong start to the year for this Scottish 5-piece. Combining stunning harmonies and rhythmic drums to create a simple yet meaningful sound is a style upheld by the most prestigious of acts, and Jakil don’t fail with their interpretation. Coming to a climactic end,‘Look Like Gold‘ most definitely warrants a second listen as singer Kieran displays his diversity. With the support of Radio 1 secured, and a début album on the cards for 2014, keep an ear to the ground for Jakil as they take the pop/soul genre by storm.
