On May 11th King
Purple released new single ‘Stuck In The Rough’ produced by Ryan Pinson at RML
Studios in Wolverhampton.
The song takes you on a
swirling journey of early 90s shoegazing tones with the Corby three piece
alt-rock band led by the vocals/guitar of Callum Connachie, Luke Carscadden on
bass and Frazer Beattie on drums. Comparisons with Soundgarden and The Verve
can be found, and that is never a bad thing given that bands like Shame and
DMAs are bringing the sounds we loved back then a fresh twist and King Purple
are doing the same.
King Purple are definitely
ones to watch in 2018, having already supported Transmission favourites
RedFaces, Dream Wife and Husky Loops in 2017.
The are heading out on a joint
headline tour with Monarchs kicking off on the 26th of May at The
Swan Revived in Newport Pagnall ending with a hometown show at The White Hart
in Corby on the 29th of June.
A list of tour dates are in
the picture below. They are playing loads of local shows so no excuses not to
check them out live.
