King Furnace are a law unto themselves: spiky, melodic, twisted, proggy, alternative pop rock developed in isolation on a disused airfield in Oxfordshire, with impulsive and hell-raising live shows that offer a tantalising glimpse into their warped world.

Spotted recently playing with the likes of The Reverend Horton Heat, Little Fish, Johnny Panic, Frank Turner and Mystery Jets, King Furnace have also been working feverishly on their debut album and filming music videos at Shepperton Studios.

King Furnace will be coming to a gig venue or festival near you soon. Meanwhile, you can download their debut single, ‘Crash’ from iTunes and sign up to their mailing list for the latest updates.
