The band centers on siblings Sam Bettens (formerly known as Sarah Bettens) (lead vocals, guitar) and Gert Bettens (guitar, keyboard, vocals). They are joined by Eric Grossman (bass), Jan van Sichem Jr. (guitar) and Koen Liekens (drums).

Their music can be described as guitar-based singer-songwriter rock or folk-rock. It ranges from very delicate and intimate singer-songwriter songs to songs that are stronger, more active and louder. Sam’s smoky, enigmatic voice is the band's best known characteristic. In the seven years between The Great Subconscious Club and Almost Happy the music changed from raw and guitar-based to a more subtle and delicate sound. Sam and Gert write most of the music and lyrics. Most of it is written separately.

Sam mainly tries to express ideas in his songs, and has a hand in writing silly and tongue-in-cheek songs. Gert has one big theme: losing the one you love. While most of the songs are easily accessible and open, some others are strange and incomprehensible. This led Sam to comment: "Listening to the lyrics in the first time, you may find it hard to understand their meaning. When you listen to them a second time you may sense a basic truth in these cryptic words. If you do so, please let me know."

This band appeared in an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Doppelgangland) with the song Virgin State of Mind, leading to a boost in popularity.Their most popular song 'Not an addict' can be heard in the movie 'Wild things'.

K's Choice fifth studio album, "Echo Mountain" (after the studios where it was recorded - Echo Mountain Studios in North Carolina) was released on 26 March 2010, with singles "When I Lay Beside You" and "Come Live The Life" being released from the album.

2016 marked the band's first US tour in over 10 years, which the band releasing an accompanying sessions album - The Backpack Sessions later in the year.

In January 2017, the band released a stripped-back re-recording of "Not an Addict." It featured Skin of Skunk Anansie as a guest vocalist, who had previously performed the song live with the group on several occasions.

On 16 March 2018, the band released a live album entitled "Live at the Ancienne Belgique", recorded at a concert (in Dec 2017) in Brussels during the 25th Anniversary tour.

In May 2019, Sam Bettens came out as a trans man.

I Will Return To You
K's Choice Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Today, there's nothing more to say
But someday I'll return to you
Today, things didn't go our way
Maybe tomorrow, I will return to you

Today, I'd like to slip away from all this pain
Someday, I'll return to you
Today, I'd like to be a cell inside your vein

Maybe tomorrow, I will return to you

Once more, I'd like to put a spider in your bed
For that, I will return to you
I want you to hear the things, I never said
For that, I will return to you, someday, I'll return to you

Dry the rain inside my head
To hear the things, I never said
I will return to you

To be a light beam through a cloud
To laugh at things I'm singing now
I will, I will return to you
I will return to you, to you

I will return to you
Someday, I'll return to you

I will return to you
Maybe tomorrow, I will return to you
