BLUE KING BROWN – WORLDWIZE NATIONAL TOUR ALBUM LAUNCH

World tour showcase dates announced for March 2011

“…the voice of the street and the band of the future.” Carlos Santana

As Blue King Brown [BKB] prepare for their coveted international performance spots at SxSW [USA], CMW[Canada] and Babel Med [France]through March, they are pleased to announce dates for their first national Australian ‘headline’ tour in eighteen [18] months to officially launch their new album WORLDWIZE PART 1 North & South. Master musicians of the live circuit, the band is primed to showcase their adrenalising ‘live’ grooves from the highly acclaimed Worldwize album, and remain committed to take their adoring audience on a real life sonic journey, flowing with modern international inspirations from Jamaica & beyond…

A sound unlike any other musical group in Australia, Blue King Brown has broken boundaries with the release of the powerful double-punch that is WORLDWIZE; a bold double disc record with a classy selection of tracks; on Northside is a voice seeking connection, and to the Southside is the yet to be fully discovered irrepressible groove on which it travels.We strongly recommend; LISTEN TO SOUTHSIDE!

Blue King Brown will be joined by special guests including Ash Grunwald at the Forum show in Melbourne (May 20), Aboriginal hip hop/reggae band Zennith in Cairns (28 May) and Melbourne based African hip hop artists Diafrix at all shows except Cairns.
