A NEW YEAR AND NOT ONE… BUT TWO NEW ALBUMS!
This version of The Korgis has always been happy to let things unfold in a random way. After the success of Kartoon World it was never in doubt that we would follow it with more new material. The grey area was 'when'.
2024 marks the release of brand new material for The Korgis, in the form of a double album released in two parts. UN-United Nations BLUE and RED have elicited some great responses with many people hailing it as 'even better' than Kartoon World, our 2021 comeback album.

WHO THE HELL ARE THE KORGIS?
The Korgis are a British pop band known for their hit singles, 'If I Had You' in 1979, and "Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime' in 1980. The band's original members were singer/guitarist/keyboardist Andy Davis and singer/bassist/guitarist James Warren, both former members of 1970's group Stackridge.
The Korgis of today feature original vocalist and founder member James Warren, with John Baker, additional lead vocalist from 1992. Al Steele on guitar from The Korgis 90's live band and the 2017 comeback, multi-instrumentalist Danielle Nicholls on guitar/vocals/percussion and studio ace Paul Smith on drums.
THE KORGIS ARE BACK!
In 2021 The Korgis released KARTOON WORLD
This was the first album of original Korgis material in 30 years. After that amount of time we were hardly going to sit on the fence!
Kartoon World has been hailed as a 'career high' and 'album of the year' for 2021.
The Korgis had never gigged, preferring the 'studio recluse' label, but that all changed in 2017.
The current line-up is the most dynamic version of The Korgis ever. Add to that a new album written for these almost biblical times, and the stars begin to align.
International gigs, a new release called
Kool Hits, Kuriosities and Kollaborations is both old and new, both curious and comfortable.
Here is where it all started back in 1979...
