Le Kid
Mercy Mercy

unsigned/Roxy, Sweden

WE SAY

Le Kid are a Swedish pop quintet, two of whom have recently co-produced Release Me by Agnes which was a hit all around Europe. Together for about 18 months, the band are currently writing and recording their album. Mercy Mercy will be the first single from it - and what an infectious debut it is. Anders Hansson (Agnes, Alcazar, BWO) is involved with them (he's executive-producing the album), which bodes well for a quality of the music. The buzz on this track took on a life of its own when the video was posted on YouTube, with plenty of online coverage following. Le Kid are available for records in UK/ Europe. JF
