K's Choice
Ks Choice - Almost Happy
Hailing from Belgium, K's Choice initially started off as a duo with brother and sister Gert and Sarah Bettens. Bassist Erik Verheyden and drummer Koen Lieckens were added to the fray while they geared up for European tours supporting Morphine, the Proclaimers, and the Indigo Girls. In 1994, the group stuck a American deal with Epic. Paradise in Me, the band's second album, showcased a more musically aware K's Choice. The dark rock reflection in debut single "Not an Addict" immediately caught on, spending nearly 30 weeks on Billboard's Heatseekers chart that year. Lieckens and Verheyden exited the band, leaving Bart Van der Zeeuw to take over drum duties. Tours across Europe pushed "Not an Addict" further into the mainstream, allowing K's Choice to gain popularity. Alanis Morissette, who was still setting flames with her 1995 album Jagged Little Pill, took the band on tour in 1996.
