About
King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys are probably the most exciting swing, blues and rhythm & blues band on this planet – or any other planet!
With more than 7000 performances in 27 countries under their belt in their 35 years on the road, King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys are more than just the world's greatest jump, jive and swing band – they're an institution! 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. They've 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, The Gadget Show and on a prime time National Lottery advertisement – not to mention accompanying John Barrowman in a rendition of I Get A Kick Out Of You on Live And Kicking.
Rough, tough and always rocking, King Pleasure & The Biscuit Boys have appeared at festivals, in concert and at clubs throughout the UK and Europe. They also headlined the Birmingham Jazz & Blues Festival for an unprecedented 14 years.
The band line up as King Pleasure (vocals and baritone saxophone), Boysey Battrum (alto and tenor saxophones), Bullmoose K Shirley (guitars), Mighty Matt Foundling (piano), Shark Van Schtoop (bass), and Gary 'The Enforcer' Barber (percussion).
"The hardest act to follow since the parting of The Red Sea" Paul Jones, BBC Radio 2
