Here's
what their fans say...
2018 sees King Pleasure
& The Biscuit Boys celebrate a remarkable 30 consecutive years on the road.
Clocking up over 6500 performances in 21 countries in that time, King Pleasure
& The Biscuit Boys are more than just the world’s greatest jump, jive and
swing band – they’re an institution!
We recently asked the
band's fans to tell us what some of their favourite memories of watching the
Biscuit Boys over the last three decades are. Here's just a select few of
the dozens of responses we received:
"Going to Warwick Castle
to see a classic car show & discovering the band entirely by accident. They
carried me away with such swing they make a trebuchet useless!"
"Cleethorpes Jazz
Festival - early 1990’s. My best friend Charlotte and I were around 14 and
danced from the moment you started! I’m 40 now and seen you several times since.
You’re still awesome!"
"Hard to choose a
favourite, because every time has been fantastic. Had some fabulous nights with
my family enjoying KP & I love taking new friends to see them, knowing they
are going to have a great time too. Probably my favourite has to be at the Hare
& Hounds where I danced so much I couldn't walk the next
day!"
"Watching them as the
openers for the Blues Brothers Band. They kicked butt!!"
"Dancing with my partner
between the seats because we couldn't sit still"
"First time at the
Buttermarket, Shrewsbury, I was entranced and thrown back in time with the
pulsating rhythm which took my breath away, and found it impossible to keep my
feet still"
"I was gobsmacked with
the musicianship and stage presence of these guys, great laughter as
well."
"Sitting down watching
the band on a Sunday at Y Not every year since we started going, best band at
the festival"
