FeverKing create that raw and exciting sound of pure rock 'n' roll but with a slick, professional sound to their performance. Not a glimpse of Johnny B Goode or any of the old classics from these guys as they bring their own highly original rock 'n' roll songs to centre stage. Listening to their songs felt like those kids of the fifties hearing Chuck Berry for the first time. One acoustic number was heartwrenchingly good and made the hairs stand up on the back of the neck. - Swindon Evening Advertiser
Something a bit special. A great live band… quite an event to see. Excellent. - Lush Radio, Leicester
...there was one band that I was completely wowed by, and their name is FeverKing. Think a British version of Kings of Leon, with less hair, and a sweet ass lead guitar player. They've got a good mix of acoustic and electric, with damn catchy songs that got me dancing... perhaps my new favorite band on this side of the ocean. I remembered being impressed with them the first time I saw them, and yet last night it was top notch. Nice fellas too. Not only did I get a guitar pick flung especially to me by the uber talented guitar player, but we even got a dedication to their American friends. Look out for these boys, they'll make it to New York soon, if I have anything to say about it. - Underrated Magazine, New York

Bio
You gotta see them live! FeverKing has evolved into a tight three-piece gin-house rock 'n' roll band, with Will on Hammond organ / bass guitar, Kyle's guitar genius, and Dame "Son of Moon" on drums, together for just over a year. Our small home town in the south of England is behind us all the way, paying for our recent trip across the pond to play in New York. Our influences are traditional and varied - Lou Reed, Serge Gainsbourg, The Band, Cream, The Doors... - but we are winning new fans in the UK, with what was described in NY as our "great, original sound". As a result of our US trip, we have been asked to do some music for a (perfume!) commercial, so want to return soon. They seem to like us in the States! Will has synaesthesia, so he hears colours; Kyle happens to be a cordon bleu chef, so you'll eat well if you take us on; and Dame can hold his breath for 8 minutes.
