KOOKS STAR PRITCHARD AND THE DŲ TO RECORD ALBUM

THE KOOKS frontman LUKE PRITCHARD is teaming up with French band THE DŲ to record an album of cover songs. Singer Pritchard kicked off his rock career playing his own versions of classic songs in a band called Covernote, which toured the club scene across London.
And now he's set to revive even more versions with rock duo The Dų.
He tells NME.com, "We're just going to do covers. If we have time to write anything we might, but I don't think so. We'll just see how it goes. We'll probably release it a little bit more in France."
And the star insists he will shun a big budget production: "I want to do it a bit like, trashy The Velvet Underground And Nico kind of vibe. We're going to try and get a vibe and get a sound in the room and not over-complicate things with the production."
