Currently completing a massive run of European dates, alt. country rockers Kingswood are returning home for another string of live shows this summer.
After performing 100-plus shows around Australia as part of their 'Hometowns' tour dating back to late 2022, Kingswood have reconnected with their fans at a grassroots level, travelling in their purpose-constructed tour bus they've named Peggy.The upcoming run of shows will see the band play a stack of regional areas as well as some metro stops along the way. Next month, the band will also launch their own craft beer, Kingswood Lager, which will be available at the live shows.
The band have also released two songs (including the title track) from their forthcoming album 'God Already Knows' (out 4 November) that's being billed as a collection of songs related to the tale of G.C. Townes.
"Beer has been the fuel of the Kingswood machine since the beginning, the beautiful lubrication accompanying the highs and the lows, the perfect punctuation at the end of a working day," shares the band.
"Building a sense of community through relentless touring of this wonderful country of ours very quickly highlighted one obvious thing. Australian beer is the best beer, and we love it.
"To love something means you want it to be a part of your life, and quite clearly, we're not a band that sits on the sidelines when it comes to everything we do, so naturally, we proudly present – KINGSWOOD LAGER.
"The gold standard in Australian beer. This is a no frills, good times lager by the people, for the people. Refreshing and crisp with a recipe perfected through 15 years of good times country rock & roll."
Tickets are on sale.
