"Forming in Belgium in the early ‘90s, at the height of grunge's celebration in the American music press, K's Choice (initially called simply ""The Choice"") was a highly regarded alt-rock band that found cachet with the indie and college rock set. In time, they'd fade from mainstream notice, but continued to find success throughout Europe and among a devoted group of fans here in the states.At the center of the band is the brother and sister team of Gert and Sarah Bettens. The Belgium siblings started performing together in the late ‘80s in a band dubbed The Basement Plugs (the name came from the fact that they rehearsed in a basement because it was the only place they could find with enough plugs for their instruments). They mostly played covers, but Sarah Bettens' vocal talents were recognized and she eventually landed herself a deal for a solo single. Afterward, she convinced her label that together, the brother-sister team was much more lucrative, and they formed The Choice. They released their debut, The Great Subconscious Club, in 1993.Pressed by an American band of the same name to change their moniker, The Choice became K's Choice, after Josef K. in Kafka's The Trial. They released a sophomore album, Paradise in Me, in 1995, scoring a hit with the single ""Not an Addict."" It would take a few years before gaining recognition in the states, but it eventually climbed to the rank of five on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. After touring with Alanis Morissette and appearing at Lilith Fair, the band released a third record, Cocoon Crash, which became a platinum hit in Belgium. 2000's Almost Happy wasn't released in the states until 2002, but proved to be a fan favorite when it finally was."
