If there were ever a band that knew what it is to grind, it is Almost Kings. Staying on the road more than nine months each year, they have toured the United States countless times taking over markets one person at a time. Some say that fate took its course bringing together these four Atlanta artists - lyricist & vocalist Boze, guitarist & vocalist Ryan Yunker, drummer Kevin Compton, and bassist & vocalist Danny Helms.
Over the course of 2008, Almost Kings independently recorded and produced "Filthy Nice". The album was released in February, 2009 and since has sold thousands of copies at shows as well as thousands of singles on iTunes.
Almost Kings is quickly becoming a movement - it has been defined by some as "skate-rock" and the dawn of the next era of music. Gaining international notoriety, the band has toured with acts such as Rehab, Framing Hanley, Drowning Pool, Everlast, and many more. Almost Kings has been labeled as an "unstoppable self-sufficient machine" by select major record label representatives, and has "independently tackled the development process" that labels often force feed new artists.
With an undeniable and energetic live show, an endless supply of catchy hooks, and a work ethic that cannot be reckoned with, there is no doubt that it is only a matter of time before Almost Kings finds its niche in music's history.
