Award-winning Blues Rock band King King have announced a nationwide UK tour which takes in Chester Live Rooms on Saturday November 26th, with very special guests Broken Witt Rebels.
Having scored three radio hit singles on Planet Rock with the songs Crazy, Hurricane, and most recently, Rush Hour, King King received a nomination for Best New Band at the 2015 Classic Rock Awards. The band followed this with a UK arena tour supporting Thunder with the highlight being a packed concert at London’s Wembley Arena.
The band’s 2015 album Reaching For The Light was voted #1 album by Blues Rock Review. and in 2014, King King won a total of five 2014 British Blues Awards, including Best Album and Best Band. The nods came from BBC Radio 2 presenter and The Blues Band front man Paul Jones to Classic Rock’s The Blues magazine. Their support slot on John Mayall’s 2014 UK tour pushed the band to another level.
King King’s second album Standing in the Shadows, firmly established them as the leading exponents of the British Blues scene. They still retain that accolade today. “We’re determined to take King King to new heights,” says guitarist and vocalist Alan Nimmo. “We enjoy winning over new fans who’ve discovered us for the very first time. We’re also excited to have Broken Witt Rebels supporting us on our November tour, as they are a fine example of how a young rock group can connect to their rock and blues influences and still make it sound fresh and exciting.”
In the last six months, the buzz around self-released, Birmingham blues rock band Broken Witt Rebels has reached a deafening roar. So much so that the band have rushed out their latest single, Guns, to capitalize on fan-driven interest. The official video for Guns has generated almost 400,000 views on YouTube in less than 48 hours. Their bluesy southern swagger has drawn favourable comparisons with Kings of Leon, Alabama Shakes and The Black Keys.
