Music Event of the Week TONIGHT AT THE MIDDLE EAST Langhorne Slim & The Law Ha Ha Tonka Kingsley Flood 18+ $15 We were raining accolades down on Langhorne Slim long before it was a popular thing to do so or prior to him becoming the star on the national indie landscape that he [...]
If you're looking for something to do tonight, there's no better choice than heading to the Middle East for what has to be one of the strongest bills of the year so far. Langhorne Slim, Ha Ha Tonka and local favorites Kingsley Flood are going to bring a heavy dose of gritty, sweaty Americana to Central Square and I suggest you be there.

Andrew Bird is a strange fellow. I watched him slack-jawed a few years ago as he held down a summer festival stage by himself, weaving symphonies out of his virtuoso fiddle-playing. He also barely uttered a word. And he writes songs about tumors. He at the very least doesn't seem as adept at expressing himself outside of music, and hadn't a clue how to respond to this unforgettable question the other week from Stephen Colbert: "Your music is emotionally evocative. Hypothetically, one of my writers can't listen to the album The Mysterious Production of Eggs without thinking of [...]

Tweet vaso link A little over a month ago, Boston's Kingsley Flood brought their own brand of Americana to the Lovin' Cup stage. They mostly played material off of their fantastic new EP Colder Still . Live, the band has the ability to match the diversity found on their recordings with multiple instruments finding their ways to many of the members. Strings became horns, rock became roll, America became Mexico. Guitarist George Hall had a Nels-Cline-esque approach to his playing, which added yet another dimension to [...]
Words // Scott Pingeton Six months ago I was counting down the days to another Newport Folk Festival...and our Newport Nightcap afterparty. Putting together a lineup of four fantastic artists, organizing beer sponsorships, ticket sales, lighting/sound, coordinating with a venue ill-equipped for an event of its size and everything else that went into the party (not to mention holding down a demanding day job) was tough. But ultimately so so worth it. The party was a huge success - great music, a HOT, packed, sold-out venue and even a little mention in Billboard [...]
This past Saturday, Kingsley Flood , along with Tom McBride , provided an evening of rip-roaring folk rock sounds to an intimate-but-filled house at IOTA . The Vinyl District was proud to participate, and I was quite pleased to have the opportunity to introduce each act and in doing so take all the credit. The Boston-bred Americana "Rock with a Fiddle" sensation Kingsley Flood were playing to promote their latest EP release Colder Still , as this was the release party. If I were to sum up Kingsley [...]
I want to share more great music coming out of Boston. Disappointed I'm going to miss their show, I decided to write them up here instead! Kingsley Flood is a six-piece Americana band, and you'll here all six of them kick in as the song builds. The song also seems to roll over into different genres as it builds- from soft folk to blaring rock, and even a little ska when the horn kicks in. The fiddle work is particularly delicious. What really drew me in though was the line "I won't go [...]
A gang of honey-grubbing bears plan one last heist in "I Don't Wanna Go Home" by Kingsley Flood.
Celebrating the release of their new EP Colder Still, Kingsley Flood pays a visit to the DMV by way of IOTA tomorrow night. The Vinyl District has long been following the trajectory of Kingsley Flood and are honored to introduce them before they hit the stage at this release party. Kingsley Flood has been on a rampage-well known as one of the best live acts in Boston, their song "I Don't Wanna Go Home" was featured as NPR's Song of the Day last May. Look for [...]
Kingsley Flood - Black Boots Kingsley Flood - I Don't Wanna Go Home Our friends Kingsley Flood released their Colder Still EP yesterday, one that has been on regular replay here in my library and for good reason. Colder Still is a 6 song EP that ramps up the energy and plays like a Kingsley Flood live show. A bit raucous, full of energy and exemplifies the rootsy, gypsy, americana these guys play, with an added a bit of testosterone. If you've been fortunate to have [...]

![[Boston Music Miscellany] Night Fruit, Kingsley Flood, The Figgs, Eldridge Rodriguez, The Hush Now](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3928394_lg.jpg)
A quick one, Boston-style, before I head up north for the weekend... I became a bonafide Night Fruit fan about 1 minute into a crowded Allston basement show back in January (RIP live music @ Wadzilla ), which is how long it took to decide I'd be sticking around for the trio's entire set. And within a few minutes of getting home that night, despite severe sleepiness, I was online searching for recordings, discovering their [...]

Kingsley Flood - Black Boots Strap on your boots, our friends here in Boston, Kingsley Flood have released another track off their upcoming EP Colder Still . This song has been a staple of their live shows and for great reason. The pounding drums, the trash can clangs, string arrangements all build a sound of rollicking, boot stomping party in an old western saloon. More Kingsley Flood MusicSavage | Web | Facebook | Twitter
Boston's Kingsley Flood has been getting a lot of play on Ninebullets Radio ever since the song "I Don't Wanna Go Home" dropped and recently the band reached out to me and asked if I had any interest in debuting a track from their upcoming EP Colder Still . Since the release of Dust Windows Kingsley Flood has been building quite a name for themselves, even scoring the song of the day on NPR once so I am really honored that they found ninebullets.net a [...]
