Please be aware that we'll have windows open during our gig tomorrow night, as a safety measure, so you may want to dress a bit more warmly than usual! We'll also be testing ourselves on the day, so maybe you'd like to do that too.
Welcome to kingB
kingB love the blues. kingB love the way the blues makes you feel.
We have been sharing our blues for over ten years throughout our Oxfordshire homelands and beyond. We want to play at your club, pub, party or festival. Our repertoire features blues classics and original songs. Powerful vocals and soloing from guitars and harmonica ensure every performance is unique. In kingB we do our own thing but it's always just for you. Come on down, sing, dance, have a good time.

Wrap up warm on Sunday ...
Hats off to the Hand and Shears
Sally and Patrick and the team at the Hand and Shears were awesome last night. Great atmosphere, amazing 'blues menu' food - let's hope we can do it again soon!
Thank you Charlbury!
Thank you to Charlbury and especially to the Cricket Club for hosting us last night. A great evening, not what you'd call warm for August, but it was dry and sunny and the crowd was really welcoming. We loved it!
Really back? Fingers crossed!
It has been soooooooooo long! Cancellation after postponement after cancellation - it has all been so disappointing. But now, hopefully, we're back in action with two gigs, one of them outdoors, and we can finally get back into playing some real blues for real people! Do please come and say hello and give us a big smile.
Music is back!
It has been a horrendous year for live music and musicians, but things may be about to restart at last. We've got two fantastic events in the calendar, and we're just hoping government guidelines will allow them both to proceed as planned. We'd love you to be there with us!
Back in the woodshed
For a few months the band has been all over the place - travelling that is - and doing some interesting projects, but now we're back working hard on new numbers for the summer season. And the season is shaping up nicely, with some great festival gigs and parties, plus a couple of appearances at our favourite, the White Hart of Wytham. All details coming soon!
New video
We've a hot new video of Claire strutting her stuff with the band in funky mode, from our January visit to Tap Social. Ian Siegal's 'Hard Pressed'. Definitely the good sort of winter blues!
Summer’s gone but kingB is back ...
We’ve had a bit of radio silence over the summer, with members of the band busy travelling and even getting married! But we’re back with a couple of great gigs, showcasing very different parts of Oxford’s lovely music scene. From the spectacular riverside location of the Cherwell Boathouse, famous for its restaurant and punt station, to the industrial cool and creative social space of Tap Social, we think we’ve got a good mix for you. We hope we’ll see you soon.
White Hart today: it's on!
The weather is looking good and we've confirmed with the venue that we'll be on stage in the garden of the White Hart of Wytham, this afternoon from 5.30pm. Maybe wrap up a bit warm, but come and enjoy your first outdoor gig of the year, with the pub's excellent BBQ. See you there!
Food from Ethiopia and Eritrea
We just heard the good news that Saturday's gig at Tap Social will feature Lula’s Ethiopian/Eritrean Cuisine. Their spicy delights are often enjoyed at Gloucester Green Market, and now you can combine them with kingB's tasty blues!
