Prepare for Rush Hour when King King play The Atkinson
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.
They followed up with an UK arena tour supporting Thunder.
They are a multi-award winning rock/blues band with reputation for a chemistry not only between band members, but also between band and audience.
They work the audience like stadium pros, yet there is also an intimacy and genuineness to their performance that makes the whole crowd feel part of the show.
Their sound is driven by the powerhouse rhythm section of Wayne Proctor on drums and Lindsay Coulson on bass, coupled with the Bob Fridzema on keyboards.
The band underscores virtuoso frontman Alan Nimmo.
His full-blooded style, techni- cal ability and impassioned vocals are infectious and instantly recognisable.
Special guests Bad Touch are a young UK rock band who formed six years ago and, like most bands, the first years were spend toiling away in local pubs.
Their desire to reach a wider audience led them to seek gigs around the country and this was instrumental in being awarded an Exposure Music Award in 2012 for their live show and being invited to play at Hard Rock Hell for the first time.
One for fans of live music at its finest with the vibes of Led Zep and The Black Crowes.
