The January Blues Festival celebrates it's 10th anniversary year with the welcome return of Scottish Blues-Rock group King King.
Scottish Blues-Rock group King King formed in 2008. It may well have been high profile support slots with the likes of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, Thunder and Europe which opened King King's music up to a much wider audience. But it was pure talent and hard work which got them there in the first place.
