This Autumn will see fresh new ground covered by The King Blues as they collaborate with Silcox & Eyes for a searing remix of their new single and fan-favourite ‘The Future’s Not What It Used To Be’, taken from their third critically acclaimed & Top 40 album - Punk & Poetry (2011).
It's a big few months for The King Blues as they head to Europe for a 19 date Tour with the Broilers throughout October. The band return to the UK for their biggest headline show to date at The Roundhouse in London on November 2nd, which kicks off their Autumn UK Headline Tour and Leftfield in Motion shows with Billy Bragg.
Zane Lowe (BBC Radio 1) selected the track as his ‘Hottest Record in The World’ (03.10.2011) commenting that he was ‘blown away’ when he first heard ‘The Future’s Not What It Used To Be (Silcox & Eyes Remix)’ describing the collaboration as ‘phenomenal’, a ‘match made in heaven’ and a ‘perfect hybrid’.
