Blue King Brown return to home shores for one very special journey West...to The West Coast Blues 'n' Roots Festival! With the release of their new single, Moment Of Truth, the follow up album to their award-winning debut, Stand Up, is due for release in 2009.
Sharing stages across the world with the likes of Damien ‘Jr Gong' Marley, Julian Marley, Santana, The John Butler Trio and Michael Franti has brought this incredible band's craft to another level and a brand new audience. Peter Gabriel's WOMADelaide and Al Gore's Live Earth 2007 are just some of the highlighted festivals that have given Blue King Brown their platform to spread their music and message. Being invited to jam with Carlos Santana and gaining his dignified respect, when they supported his recent Australian stadium tour, was a lifetime highlight for front woman Natalie Paapaa.
BKB's talent has recently been recognised and acknowledged worldwide through collaborations for their upcoming album with the legendary Sly and Robbie, Jah Mason, Rovleta Fraser and renowned engineers Chris Macro (Scribe, Katchafire) and Bonzai (known for his work with Damien and Stephen Marley, amongst many others). Recording have been scattered across the globe, from Australia to Jamaica (Anchor Studios & Bob Marley's legendary Tuff Gong studios) to New York, Las Vegas and San Francisco.
BKB's hard hitting new, Moment Of Truth, is a testament to the rise of one of Australia's greatest acts, they have pushed the boundaries of their genre and taken hold of a mass cross generation of music lovers.
This is a highly anticipated new track and headline tour from the band that has been laying low on the OZ touring circuit to be in the studio creating their new album. But thankfully we'll be seeing them live at the West Coast Blues 'n' Roots.
