Kings Heathens are releasing our second album,
Of Wind and Tide
, and we'd love for you to join us at the launch!
We'll be playing all the songs from the album, as well as selling copies of it, at a new venue on York Road in our very own Kings Heath. Tickets are limited so get them while you can!
Kings Heathens are made up of David Fisher and Evan C Ritchie. We formed three years ago when David walked into Evan's barber shop for a haircut, and walked out having already had a haircut and our first jam. Since then, we've headlined at folk clubs; played at folk festivals; and released our debut album in 2024 (
Old Tall Stories).
Kings Heathens fuse modern and traditional folk to create lively, uptempo songs that impossible not to sing along to!
Admission price: £12 (or £20 for admission and a CD)
"Kings Heathens are a vital force in not only keeping the tradition alive but contributing to it with their own authentic-sounding material that could have come from lost volumes in the Child and Roud collections,
Old Tall Stories
is a hugely impressive debut album that should comfortably see club and festival invitations swamping their inboxes" -
