" .quietly, here at Radio 2 we think Alan Nimmo and King King are going to go all the way!" Paul Jones - BBC Radio
“hunky, chunky blues rock from a tartan-kilted fierce bluesy foursome’ That’s how the press critics described the debut performance of KING KING at this years Maryport Blues Festival.
Over the past year KING KING have swept like a breath of fresh air through the British Blues scene. Fronted by charismatic bluesman Alan Nimmo (of Nimmo Bros fame), audiences at Monaghan, Maryport & Blues on The Farm festivals were left in no doubt that the future of the blues is now in the safe hands of KING KING.
Their debut EP ‘Broken Heal’was produced by the team behind the Arctic Monkeys, Kaiser Chiefs and the Editors (to name but a few), the EP instantly received a gleaming review from Blues Matters Magazine, including remarks on it’s “emotive lyrics”, “heartwrenching guitar solos” and “stirring guitar work”. Pretty impressive stuff for a band less than a year old. So what’s at the root of all this commotion? Well, aside from seemingly boundless impetus, the band is certainly not lacking in pedigree. With this lineup of top-shelf musicians, KING KING could only draw their inspiration from the best in the business, ranging from legendary greats such as BB King and Albert Collins to the shining lights of contemporary blues like Joe Bonamassa and John Mayer.
