King King

Saturday 25th June 2011, 7pm,£12
"Softly softly" is not a maxim that King King are familiar with. Since surging into life less than twelve months ago they have barely stopped for breath, and their electrifying sound and scorching live shows have generated more of a thunderous roar than a buzz.

Fronted by charismatic bluesman Alan Nimmo, their exhilarating debut at last year's Monaghan Blues Festival created such a stir that it prompted organizer Somhairle MacConghail to state: "King King aren't just playing the festival. Word is that King King ARE the festival". kingkingblues myspace
