BAND ON TOUR ACROSS ONTARIO IN DECEMBER

Toronto, ON – Wednesday, November 7, 2018 – Following the 2017 release of their earworm lead single, Still The One, and heartfelt track, Best In You, The Philosopher Kings are set to unleash the rest of the songs from their brand new album, Return of The Kings. Out digitally this Friday (November 9) and physically on December 14, the album perfectly showcases the band’s infectious melodies, undeniable energy, and unique combination of pop and alternative rock. Stream/purchase the album here, and don’t miss the band live this December across Ontario (full details below). 

After a 10-year hiatus spent, in part, writing and producing for some of the most notable artists in the music industry – Drake, Sia, Maroon 5, Nelly Furtado, Tina Turner, Jason Mraz, Selena Gomez, Jessie J, Shawn Mendes, James Blunt, Andra Day, Olly Murs, Rachel Platten, The Arkells, Ricky Martin, Dua Lipa, and Andy Grammer, to name a few – The Kings reunited with a renewed energy, revitalized focus, and brand new material.

As busy and fulfilled as they are with their individual careers, the call from fans to return to The Philosopher Kings fold could no longer be resisted and the band members are thrilled to be able to bring their songs, their superior showmanship and their high-octane, invigorating live shows to stages worldwide. “This is the best we’ve sounded,” says keyboardist, Jon Levine. “The Kings are back.”

The Philosopher Kings’ recording career began with the band’s self-titled debut in 1994, which spawned the hit single, Charms, with the album eventually earning Gold status in Canada. Winning a JUNO Award in 1996 for Best New Group and landing on the U.S. Top 40 chart that same year with Charms, the band criss-crossed the country, becoming one of the most sought after and popular live acts on the circuit. Their commercial, critical and popular breakthrough occurred with the release of their second album, Famous, Rich and Beautiful in 1997, which was certified Platinum.
