THE KING BLUES UPDATE

Firstly thanks to Mike Davies, all the bands and everyone we met at Reading/Leeds Festival, definately the best one yet.
It's always the highlight of the summer and to see the tent overflowing was pretty special

You can see the BBC footage of 'My Boulder' acoustic session at http://www.bbc.co.uk/readingandleeds/2008/artists/kingblues/index.shtml which is currently doing the rounds on BBC2

Mike Davies did a Reading special on his Radio One show last night, featuring 3 acoustic tracks 'My Boulder', 'Hold On Tight' and a cover of Meat Loaf's 'Bat Out Of Hell'. There's also an interview with us live from Reading.
