Kris Barras Band - "What You Get" (video)
Οι Kris Barras Band είναι το συγκρότημα του κιθαρίστα Kris Barras. Αγαπούν το blues rock κι έκαναν ντεμπούτο με τον δίσκο "Lucky 13" το 2016. Έναν χρόνο νωρίτερα ο Kris (ο οποίος δηλώνει ως επιρροές καλλιτέχνες όπως οι: Jimi Hendrix, Joe Bonamassa, Kenny Wayne Shepard, Gary Moore, Stevie Ray Vaughn, King King) είχε "βγάλει" ένα demo EP. Πέρυσι κυκλοφόρησε ο δεύτερος δίσκος της μπάντας, υπό τον τίτλο "The Divine and Dirty". Ο τρίτος είναι προ των πυλών. Τιτλοφορείται "Light It Up" κι αναμένεται στα μέσα του επόμενου μήνα...
Kris Barras: «I’d say that this is probably the most typical KBB song on the album. It summarises the sound that I have become known for; foot-stomping, twangy riffs and a big, catchy chorus. We’ve been playing this song live for the past six months and it always goes down really well. People were hearing it for the first time and they’re all singing along by the time it reaches the last chorus. That’s when we knew it had to be a single.»
Δελτίο τύπου: «On Friday September 13, 2019, the Kris Barras Band will release their new album Light It Up, via Mascot Label Group/Provogue. Over the last 18 months the Kris Barras Band have become one of the hottest and fastest rising rock acts in the UK.
He had stopped as an MMA fighter and self-released his 2016 debut album, he was playing pub venues to 20-50 people playing ZZ Top covers amongst originals, did a handful of blues festivals, played London only twice (as a support artist) and his aim was to get played on Planet Rock Radio. He was close to giving up on music, the next album was his one last shot. 'The Divine And Dirty' was released on Provogue on 23 March 2018.
Then the ball started rolling. The Kris Barras Band have played 4 UK headline tours, supported Beth Hart, Joanne Shaw Taylor, and this led to slots with GUN, King King, The Magpie Salute and Therapy? plus Jonny Lang & Walter Trout on Provogue's Rockin' The Blues festival tour.
After winning Planet Rock's Best New Band Award, Kris was invited to becoming a special guest presenter for 2 shows. If this wasn’t enough, Kris also joined Supersonic Blues Machine as lead singer/guitarist in July 2018 and toured Europe with the band and Billy F Gibbons! He features on the upcoming 'Road Chronicles: Live' album.
Kris Barras - from MMA fighter to hottest rising rock act in the UK. From "wanting to be played" on radio to being a presenter. From playing ZZ Top songs in a pub to actually being in a band with Billy F Gibbons. The future for the Kris Barras Band looks very exciting!»
