Celebrating 25 years ‘on the road’ the CADILLAC KINGS have built a huge reputation for entertaining audiences with a unique mix of self-penned rhythm & blues, roots rock & roll, swing (and humour!) They have played at over 1,000 different venues and festivals across the UK and Europe, from the Canaries to the Arctic circle, from Band on the Wall to the Albert Hall, & appeared alongside or opened shows for John Mayall, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Rod Piazza, Lazy Lester, Magic Slim, Louisiana Red, Larry Garner, Nappy Brown, L’il Ed & His Blues Imperials, Little Feat & Delbert McLinton among many others!
Last year The Cadillac Kings’ sixth cd release ‘Crash & Burn’ received unanimous praise and 5 star reviews from every roots & blues music magazine in the UK, USA & Europe and from radio programmers across the world. Recorded and mixed by veteran Decca engineers Dave Williams and Richard Manwaring (Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, Eric Bibb, Fleetwood Mac) The UK Blues Association included the band in their list of nominations for ‘live’ band of the year & ‘Crash & Burn’ was a nominated cd for album of the year.
“One of the nation’s finest bands in ANY genre. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.”
Grahame Rhodes, The Liverpool Echo.
“A wonderfully tight blues, roots and swing outfit – even better they’re home grown!”
John Clarke, The Times Newspaper, London
