Get ready to swing into high gear with King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys! Celebrating nearly three decades of enthralling audiences worldwide, these Kings of Swing promise an evening that guarantees to chase away the blues with their joyous, high-energy sound.

King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys are more than just a musical act; they are a phenomenon. With over 50 TV appearances, including the whimsically unexpected Teletubbies, and 75 radio broadcasts under their belts, their shows are not to be missed. Their music is a spirited rejection of the contemporary trends of anger and melancholy in pop and jazz, instead offering a lively, toe-tapping escape that is both nostalgic and freshly invigorating.

The Biscuit Boys bring to the stage an authentic swing experience that echoes the vibrant dance halls of the mid-1940s. Their music draws from the rhythm and blues of iconic venues like Harlem’s Savoy Ballroom, fused with their unique, modern flair that keeps their sound both timeless and contemporary. The band's foundation rests on the seamless blend of high-spirited tunes such as "The Wrong Door," "Big Girl," and "Bring It On Baby," showcasing their impeccable talent, focus, and collaborative spirit.

Witnessing King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys live is an unforgettable experience. They deliver a show that is wholehearted, full-on, and exhilarating—guaranteed to leave you energized and swinging into the middle of next week. The band has not only retained its core spirit with members like King Pleasure and Bullmoose, who have been there since the start, but also welcomes fresh talent like the dynamic pianist Mighty Matt Foundling, ensuring the magic continues.

With a dedicated fan base and a track record of captivating crowds from Europe to the U.S., these performers have proven their universal appeal. A New York magazine even acclaimed, "Those who say that swing is a musical form best left to Americans, prepare to be proven wrong."
