His Lordship Grace London On 23rd Featured
- Written by Marky Edison
As part of the band’s upcoming (and first ever) UK tour, His Lordship play at The 100 Club on May 23rd. Having already made their mark on London’s live scene, the band is the new project from James Walbourne (The Pretenders, The Pogues, The Rails) and Kristoffer Sonne (Chrissie Hynde, Willie Nelson), and sees Walbourne’s full potential unleashed as a frontman. Forging a furious riot of raging guitars and frenetic drums, the show is set to be one to remember.
In addition to the tour, the duo also announce their debut EP, a one take collection of rock ‘n’ roll covers, which came together in one evening after a long day of recording original songs (also coming soon). Deciding to let loose, they kept the tape rolling and filmed a set of rock’n’roll tunes they like to play. They didn’t even rehearse them. The finished EP is a first take 15-minute set of stuff they like; Gene Vincent, Jack Scott, Link Wray and The Killer.
The EP is out now, with a vinyl release to follow on Psychonaut Sounds. Tickets for the tour are available from: http://www.prbpresents.com/his-lordship/
