Kingswood are back

January 23, 2020 BY

Melbourne rockers Kingswood are set to tour Australia later this year, starting their road journey at the Barwon Club Hotel in Geelong.

Following on from the release of singles “Say You Remember” and “You Make It So Easy” in 2019, the Melbourne four-piece have announced their third studio album Juveniles is also on the way.

New song “Bittersweet” is a sneak peek into what’s to come from the album, being the first of the record’s track list.

Kingswood frontman Fergus Linacre said “Bittersweet” was originally inspired by the love story of one of the band’s “dearest friends”.

“Without going into detail, a medical issue put a question mark over their future, but without blinking they forged on together, overcome with love and companionship,” he said.

“The opening line ‘There’s no love on this earth that isn’t bittersweet’ is a truth that we should all remember as we paddle through the waves.”

Kingswood’s Australian tour dates will be the first opportunities for fans to hear Juveniles.

The ARIA-nominated group has enjoyed strong success on the road, having toured with AC/DC and Aerosmith and scoring festival sets across a string of acclaimed outdoor parties including Splendour in the Grass, Falls Festival and Groovin The Moo.

Kingswood’s 20-date run will see the band perform at venues across the country until late June.
