If you’ve been around for a couple years, you might remember that I worked Kingsborough debut album, titled The Night, The Grind, and the Woes, in the spring of 2015. Lots of you loved it. Now we’ve got their follow-up, and it’s easily as good if not better!! That last record spent 7 straight weeks on CMJ’s Top 200, peaking at #73, so I don’t see why we can’t beat that with this one (although on NACC this time around of course)! These California-based rockers make the kind of straight-ahead, American Rock and Roll that it’s hard not to love. (Think Black Keys, Cold War Kids, Alabama Shakes, Cage the Elephant, Kings of Leon.) Get some!
KINGSBOROUGH
1544
Kingsborough Music, LLC
1544 is a collection of stories that happen from the time you leave your “9 to 5” to the time your alarm tells you to do it all over again. It’s the late night adventures with friends, the twilight love affairs, the cold beers you drink after a long week. It’s all the things we use to escape the monotony or normalcy of life.
No Depression gushes about 1544: “Kingsborough integrates many faculties within the intricate music industry and possesses substantial talents of epic proportions when it comes to their versatility pertaining to ingenious musical innovation. This entire album, 1544, was self-produced and providentially holds substantial weight even amongst the top hip tier bands in the contemporary rock genre.”
1544 is the address where all the members of Kingsborough lived and wrote the album. Recorded with Grammy-nominated producer Damien Lewis, this follow-up to 2015’s acclaimed debut, The Night, The Grind, and the Woes, charts a new sound for Kingsborough with more heavy-hitting songs like “Subtle Lies” (track 3), and their melodic tunes like “Hard on the Heart” (track 8) highlight their maturing songwriting chops. The first single off the album, “Low Down” (track 2), is currently featured on Spotify’s “Blues & Roots Rock” playlist and has garnered over 637,000 streams.
