King King have lined-up 11 gigs during the month of April, including one at Birmingham Town Hall on the 14th.

Band co-founder Alan Nimmo: “I am really looking forward to embarking on our 2020 UK tour as it feels like ages since we have had the pleasure and opportunity to play on home turf for our amazing and loyal fans.

"I’m especially excited to get out there and properly showcase the new line-up too.

"There’s a great atmosphere and camaraderie among us in the band and we’re at our happiest when we’re together on the road, so I know that energy will transcend outwards to the audience when we take to the stage.

"We’ve been working hard in Morse Code studios in Glasgow putting together our new album which will be released later in the year, but we can’t wait to let our fans hear some new music live in April

"I’m very pleased with how the new songs and album is shaping up and how the song writing quality and standard has gone up again.

"No matter what we do, the King King sound is always there and we can’t wait to see all those familiar King King family faces in the crowd.”

King King is formed by Nimmo on vocals and guitar, Andrew Scott on drums, Zander Greenshields on bass and Jonny Dyke on organ and piano.
