The King of Jumpin Jive and Jazz is back in Evesham.
Now a regular feature on the Evesham Live! Programme the boys will be strutting their stuff for another fun night at Evesham Town Hall.
With more than 7000 performances in 21 countries under their belt over almost forty years on the road, King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys are more than just the world’s greatest jump, jive and swing band – they’re an institution!
In that time they have opened shows for B.B. King, Cab Calloway and His Orchestra, Ray Charles, and toured with the real Blues Brothers Band – the one from the movie.
Rough, tough and always rocking, King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys have appeared at festivals, in concert and at clubs throughout the UK, Europe, the Middle East, Russia and The USA – and they still play the Birmingham Jazz & Blues Festival, where they have headlined for an unprecedented 14 years. They’ve played on 36 radio shows and made 73 television appearances. Along the way, the band have recorded 14 albums, 11 of which for Big Bear Records, all distributed worldwide.
The band line up as King Pleasure [vocals and baritone saxophone], Boysey Battrum [alto and tenor saxophones], Bullmoose K Shirley [guitars], Mighty Matt Foundling [piano and organ], Shark Van Schtoop [double bass], and Gary ‘The Enforcer’ Barber [drums].
Join us for an evening you’ll never forget!
