Formed in October 2024 Korda Korder have grabbed attention from the get go. Fans of dream pop and huge tunes will feel at home here, as Korda Korder masterfully craft a surreal atmosphere where vocals melt into the instrumental background, almost as though they’re beckoning from another world. It’s no surprise BBC Radio 6’s Steve Lamacq has been spinning their debut single 'What Have You Done' on repeat, calling it “irresistible” while Amazing Radio praised it as a song “that stops you in your tracks.” John Kennedy made the debut single his 'Big One' at the end of last year. Now the band release a second track online. 'I Won't Live Like You Do' is a big, bold song and captures that band's ability to craft songs for a larger audience.
