Blue King Brown is a band for your hips, heart and head. You can hear the afro-beat, reggae slink and Latin influence but the band has created a distinctly original sound and they’ve hit the sweetspot. A refreshing modern take on roots music, uniquely Australian with an unquestionable international feel.

Having already toured in support of John Butler Trio, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Damian “Jr Gong” Marley and Cody ChestnuTT, they are fast becoming renowned as a brilliant and original live act.
Success came quickly for the newly formed Blue King Brown—their first commercial single, ‘Water’, released on their debut self-titled EP, was quickly added to high rotation on JJJ. As well as earning them an APRA Songwriters Award for 2005. It was the first song that Natalie and Carlo had co written and set the benchmark for a lot of their new material.

Notching up invitations to perform at The Falls, East Coast Blues & Roots Festival, Woodford Folk Festival, Great Escape, The Dreaming Festival and Southbound to name a few. Early 2006 also saw them invited to play festivals in Japan and Fiji. Their two tastes of overseas performance as a band have only deepened their desire to do it again soon. There could be no better choice as representatives of Australia’s creative and flourishing roots scene.
