AK & The Red Kites Is A Modern Rock Band With A Retro Infused Vibe Bearing Big Riffs And Vast Melodic Soundscapes.
The Cornerstone Of This New Exciting Venture Is Frontman/Guitarist Andrew Knightley, Rising From The Ashes Of His Previous Band Blues Rockers Trident Waters.
Having Eloped To The Chiltern Hills UK During The Global Pandemic, Andrew Began Writing Songs That Would Shape The Project To Come. He Muses, “I Wrote Most Of My New Music Looking Out The Window Onto The Woods And The Red Kites Are Always Circling Overhead. I Felt A Connection, That They Were Part Of My Inspiration, As They Glided Across The Sky Crying And Going About Their Business. I Wanted To Honour That Sense Of Freedom And Protection That They Have Provided Me With. AK & The Red Kites Is A Direct Reference To My Creative Process And Where I Am Now As A Person.”
Working With Multi-Platinum Award Winning Producer Mike Krompass (Everybody Loves An Outlaw), The Forthcoming Releases Will Showcase Knightleys Eclectic Range As A Songwriter And Musician; Ranging From Full On High Tempo Hard Rockers To Panoramic Swamp Vibes With Incursions Into Country And Blues Rock Territory In The Vein Of Rival Sons, Greta Van Fleet And ZZ Top. “There Were About 25 Tracks Demoed And Initially There Were Only Going To Be 10 Recorded. As The Process Went On We Decided To Stretch That To 16 As There Were Too Many Strong Tracks To Whittle It Down. It’s A Really Exciting Project And I Can’t Wait For The World To Hear What’s Been Cooking!” With Audiences Also Promised A Visually Striking Experience When The Full Band Take To The Stage, AK & The Red Kites Is Perched To Soar Throughout 2024 And Beyond.
