A great man once said, “Rock and Roll will never die.” In the hands of the band Her and Kings County it will live on forever. The brainchild of Caleb Sherman and Monique Staffile HER & Kings County was born in a Brooklyn apartment where banjos, and pedal steels competed with the horns and shouts of the city streets. Within the raw dirt of New York grew the sound that is Her and Kings County, City Country; a mix of bluegrass, hip-hop, good ‘ol finger pickin’ country and rockin’, head-banging riffs.
If Hollywood were casting a movie about a non-stop band-on-the-run, they’d need look no further than the members of Her&KC. There’s Monique, the consummate front woman- she’s Robert Plant, David Lee Roth, and Fergie rolled into one; Caleb “KBC” Sherman holds down the musical fort playing just about any instrument ever made and producing and co-writing the band’s music; Brother Love on drums – The curly-haired Dean Martin, dedicated to the ladies; A. Wonder on lead guitar is the “rock star’s rock star” – somebody wake him up so we can get back on the road; F Bomb, the bass player, got that name cause the stage shakes and rumbles, when he lays into his four string. He's a bad man; and Justin Sherman, the guitar player your mother should have warned you about.
From year to year and club to club, the band did what they only knew how, rocked. After cutting their teeth in the city streets, they got in a van, packed their gear in a trailer and was rollin’ thunder down the highways and byways of America. From Hollywood, the Carolinas, Nashville, to deep in the heart of Texas, Her and Kings County have been everywhere. Opening for the likes of Kid Rock, Montgomery Gentry, Charlie Daniels, and Dierks Bentley, to name a few. No matter the gig-clubs, bars, or arenas, the result is the same every time, devastating. Harking back to the days of Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin, Her and Kings County’s live performance have become legendary. Their City Country sound has converted new fans to country and rock music alike
After hundreds of shows, and thousands of miles, the industry started to take notice. Sony, Universal, and Warner Brothers all wanted to be a part of their revolution, but it was Warner Bros Nashville/Elektra that won out in the end.
When the ink on the deal stopped bleeding they joined forces with Red Light Management. With Elektra, Red Light and CAA, Monique, KBC, Jail, Brother Love, F Bomb, and A Wonder are roarin’ like a freight train, faster than ever, and are taking over the world. Whether it’s on the Web or Live, join Her and Kings County in raisin’ a little hell.
