Kaiser Chiefs drummer Nick J.D. Hodgson has unveiled his debut solo single.
Since leaving his former band, Nick has penned songs with Mark Ronson, Hurts, John Newman, Rat Boy, Shirley Bassey and more.
‘Suitable’ is the first single from his upcoming (unannounced) album, spawned after it started to feel “like I was writing for myself,” he explains.
“I’d spent years writing music for other people to sing and collaborate on, but this was a strange feeling: I was gonna write this for me.”
His first solo gig will be supporting The Cribs at Leeds’ Brudenell Social Club on 18th December.
