Biography
Since their festival debut at BottleRock Napa Valley 2014, KINGSBOROUGH has been creating an electric buzz with their modern twist on classic-soulful rock n’ roll. One glimpse of KINGSBOROUGH in action is enough to make any listener instantly addicted. BAM Magazine describes their BottleRock performance as, “rocking it like the big boys used to…in the same way that Springsteen has always done.”
From stage to studio, this independent group of musicians reflects the old school “working band” mentality with a heavy focus on raw performance. Their vast array of influences range from Creedence Clearwater Revival and The Doobie Brothers to Jack White and Kings of Leon which creates a sound that is familiar yet undefinable. The KINGSBOROUGH sound caught the ear of Grammy Award winning producer, Jason Carmer (Third Eye Blind, Run DMC, Korn, Chuck Prophet, The Donnas) who refined and captured it for their first full-length album, The Night, The Grind, and The Woes (2015).
