.undoutably one of Australia's best (and loudest) live acts". Rave Magazine (Live Review)



An ear-splitting, guitar drenched, grimy swamp, bleeding fingers, stomach wrenching, writhing, kicking, moaning, foot stomping all blues, all booze, short fuse three piece band from Brisbane, Australia.



Vegas Kings returned from their first European tour and 2009 sees them touring Australia and releasing the new record!!



The new record, "YOU'LL NEVER WORK IN THIS TOWN AGAIN" was released in September 2009 on Mere Noise Records. Again, the record received a bunch of AMAZING reviews throughout Australia. It was recorded by Jeff Lovejoy at Blackbox Studio in Brisbane and mixed by legendary Detroit producer Jim Diamond (Ghetto Recorders).



Their second album, "DEAD MONEY" was released at the end of 2006. The album was produced by Chet Weise from American garage blues legends The Immortal Lee County Killers and engineered by Loki Lockwood of Spooky Records. The album is released by Brisbane independent label Mere Noise Records and MGM.



Vegas Kings first album release, FOR THOSE WHO CAME IN LATE (released August 2003 through Mere Noise Records and MGM), received a swag of amazing reviews throughout Australia. With Melbourne's Beat Magazine naming it Album Of The Week and praise from national music magazines such as BLUNT and Australian Guitar Magazine, the album has increased the exposure of this Brisbane band.



The band has completed numerous east coast Australian tours with a relentless gigging and festival schedule helping to spread the Vegas Kings sound to audiences throughout Australia. Vegas Kings have played with the likes of The Dirtbombs (USA), The Bellrays (USA), The Black Keys (USA), The Immortal Lee County Killers (USA), Bob Log III (USA), The Queers (USA), The Soledad Brothers (USA), The Raveonettes, G Love & Special Sauce (USA), 50 Kaitenz (JPN), Mr. David Vinear (UK), The Easy Action (USA), John Schooley (USA), Beasts Of Bourbon, The Drones, Screamfeeder, Sixfthick, The Mess Hall, Mach Pelican, The Cosmic Psychos, Hoss, Digger & The Pussycats, Spencer P Jones + many more (Including the 2007 Big Day Out and East Coast Blues Festival in Byron)
