Continuing on from the success of previous singles ‘Burning Holes’ & ‘Good Whiskey’, Kingswood today, carry on teasing out their forthcoming record, ‘Home’ (February, 24th), with the latest track ‘One Too Many Times’ a country-rock tinged ode to leavin’ town and savouring a romance that once was.
Finding renewed confidence & purpose, ‘One Too Many Times’ highlights the phenomenal musicianship apparent in the Kingswood quartet, the band reaching higher & soaring further than ever before.
“One Too Many times is the celebration of hopeful sorrow, a staple in the emotional catalogue of the Kingswood repertoire and something synonymous with country and rock’n’roll classics for that matter. The content suggests lament entwined with that of longing and separation but shrouded in the gusto and bravado of overdriven guitars harmonizing furiously over extended solos to not only accept the proposition, but to embrace it with a fervour that serves as the fuel for courage to continue on. To stare at the face of unwavering adversity and laugh, boldly, and with guitars in tow.” KINGSWOOD
‘Home’ finds Kingswood with, hands down their strongest writing & performances to date, heralding a significant return to form for the critically acclaimed 4-piece. The competence of rich acoustic guitar and vocal harmonies between Alexander Laska and Fergus Linacre finds the band sounding more assured than ever. Kingswood recorded the record at Newmarket Studios in Melbourne, and it was mixed and mastered in Nashville by revered American engineer Eddie Spear (Zach Bryan, Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlisle).
Following on from a massive 30+ date international tour that brought Kingswood to crowds in Nashville, Germany, France, Austria, Switzerland and Czechoslovakia, the Melbourne favourites returned to Australia galvanized for what the New Year would bring. For their legions of fans in Australia, Kingswood have been responsible for some of the best live rock and roll experiences for well over a decade.
And now, as the release of Home beckons this year, Kingswood are undertaking their biggest tour to date, touring nationwide on the record-breaking 120+ date ‘HOMETOWNS’ tour. Taking place over six months in a custom-modified tour van, Kingswood kicked things off at the iconic Tamworth Country Music Festival.
