Miles Peter Kane (born 17 March 1986) is an English musician, best known as a solo artist and the co-frontman of the Last Shadow Puppets. He was also the former frontman of the Rascals, before the band announced their break-up in August 2009.
He is currently pursuing a solo career, and continues to be a part of the Last Shadow Puppets. His debut solo album, Colour of the Trap, was released on 9 May 2011 and the follow-up, Don't Forget Who You Are was released on 3 June 2013.
Born in Birkenhead, Wirral, an only child, he was raised in nearby Meols. Before learning the guitar, as a child Kane played the saxophone. Kane now supports the football team Liverpool F.C., despite giving exclusive interviews to The Sun newspaper and having previously followed Manchester United for nearly 20 years. Miles is also a close friend of Everton and England footballer Leighton Baines.
In 2015, he was named one of GQ's 50 best dressed British men.
Aged 18, Kane joined the Little Flames as guitarist alongside Eva Petersen (Vocals), Greg Mighall (Drums), Joe Edwards (Bass) and Matt Gregory (Guitar) in December 2004. The band signed to Deltasonic and were compared to label mates the Coral and high-profile fans such as the Arctic Monkeys. They also went on to tour with bands like the Coral, the Zutons, the Dead 60s and the Arctic Monkeys. The band split in 2007 prior to releasing their debut album, which remains unreleased.
