30 jaar over de hele wereld en is inmiddels een instituut.

Rough, tough and always rocking, the legendary King Pleasure and The Biscuit Boys’
zany stage show sometimes belies the fact that here is the finest, most authentic
rhythm & blues band ever to come from outside the USA. As anyone who has
followed their astonishing career knows, the band carries a guarantee of great
swinging music and high entertainment value.
2017 will be the year that King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys celebrate a remarkable
30 years on the road. 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.
Since their debut at the Birmingham Jazz & Blues Festival in 1987, the band have
delivered nearly 6500 performances in 21 countries, played on 36 radio shows and
made 73 television appearances, including several on Blue Peter, The Teletubbies,
as well as the Paradise Club series where they were the house band.
They also featured on Challenge Anneka and The Gadget Show.

prepare to be proven wrong. This British combo is bullet-proof"
