BLK JKS’ Afro-pop sound released Tuesday

One of the most promising releases coming out Tuesday is by a South African genre-jumping band called BLK JKS (pronounced Black Jacks). BLK JKS mixes rock, dub and soul filtered through an Afro-pop sound.

The album “After Robots” follows a very cool EP, “Mystery.” These guys will be in Chicago for a pair of shows at the Bottom Lounge and the Hideout Sept. 20-21.
