KINGS OF SPADE dish out a raw and grungey blend of urban funk, dirty blues, deep soul and rock. Don’t let the tattooed arms or florescent mohawk of the lead singer fool you. Her whaling vocals are fiery, passionate, and a unique hybrid of soul queens Janis Joplin and Aretha Franklin. Proud of not being boxed in a specific genre, the KINGS can remind you of a classic fist-pumping rock band in one number, take you for a dance-pop ride in the next, and then charge straight into an old smokey blues riff. Their shameless dancing, foot-stomping, and highly energetic live show has landed them gigs at LA’s House of Blues, The Avalon, and The Viper Room, as well opening for world-famous acts like Bon Jovi, Daughtry, Mutemath, Everclear, Rival Sons, and the Deftones. They just finished their 2nd studio album in Nashville, TN with Grammy nominated producer Dave Cobb which will be released on February 14th 2014. Their song “Boys In The Band” is featured on the film soundtrack for the Warner Brother’s released “Utopian Society.” Title track of their 2009 debut album “Crave” was also featured in a Roxy breast cancer awareness commercial. In 2012 KOS kicked off a cross-country tour at the Autumn Lights Festival in Los Angeles capturing fans in Arizona, Austin, Boston, Vermont, and New York. They launched an extensive 22 show US Mainland Tour in March 2013 which included a performance on Good Morning Austin on Fox 7 news and showcases at the Blind Pig Rooftop Stage, the Texas Rockfest Stage, and Red Gorilla Music Festival in Austin.
