www.xfm.co.uk/news/peter-hook-and-fat-boy-slim-on-the-kicks-judging-panelJohn Leckie and Tom from Editors are also among those on the judging panel to decide the winner in Xfm's search for The Kicks.
Danny Wallace's new novel, Charlotte Street, features a fictitious band called The Kicks. But, we wonder... Who Are The Kicks? Could YOU be The Kicks?
We have the band name. We've got the title of their hit record - "Uh-Oh". The song? That's up to you. We want YOU to record your own version of a song called "Uh-Oh". It can be any style, any lyrics, any music (as long as it's original, of course).
Tracks will come up against a public vote - the FIVE songs that collect the most votes will then go before a panel of Xfm judges who will name the band who will become THE KICKS.
The judges will be:
Fatboy Slim
Peter Hook (Joy Division/New Order)
Tom Smith (Editors)
Tim Ingham (editor of Music Week)
John Leckie (Stone Roses producer)
Eddy Temple Morris
Mary Anne Hobbs
Clint Boon
