“Forgotten What It Feels Like”, is a surging anthem for young lovers, strung up on thick riffs and layered with harmonies that worm their way into the ears and remain for days.

Kid Champion - Forgotten What It Feels Like

“Where Did All The Good Men Go?”, is a heartfelt but furious letter to the scoundrels and liars on every corner, thrust forward one minute by a pulsating, relentless bass line, and tenderly melancholic the next.

Twickenham, South West London, has a proud musical history, having been the breeding ground for such legendary bands as The Rolling Stones and The Who, as well as contemporary successes like Mystery Jets and Noah And The Whale.  But amongst the more recent herd of acts eager to find success, Kid Champion are a band with a proud reluctance to be labeled and a passion for crafting songs that defy genre.

In quick time, Kid Champion have proved their undoubted promise and popularity, with radio plays by the BBC’s Steve Lamacq, Huw Stephens and Tom Robinson, as well as a live recording session at the BBC’s Broadcasting House. Kid Champion were requested to support Art Brut at the beginning of 2012 which lead to main support slots for The Cribs and the Vaccines. KC have since performed in Ibiza with the Temper Trap and have toured Germany twice in the last year, building a strong following playing festivals including the Reeperbahn Festival Hamburg, alongside friends Citizens!, Graham Coxon and The View. 
What’s more, the band have already been championed by Banquet Records’ Jon Tolley, playing regular shows at his New Slang club night, and the video for “Forgotten What It Feels Like” is a viral hit only a few days after release.

‘Found these guys at the indie record label market in Soho, what a find!” - Steve Lamacq, BBC 6 Music

“These guys need big gigs and festival exposure!” - Gary Powell, The Libertines

“Great sound, great talent, refreshing music and lyrics” - Jon Moon (Producer Amy Winehouse, The Kooks, Kings of Leon)

Max (vocals, guitar), Davey (bass) and Silas (drums, vocals) had known each other from a young age before Kid Champion was born from a frustration with the prescriptive nature of the local musical cliques.  As Max says; “There’s only so far you can go in a ‘scene’. People were so narrow-minded. There are unwritten rules as to what you can and can’t wear and how your band should sound if they are going to accept you. That wasn’t for us.”

By embracing their varying musical tastes, the resulting sound – a product of continuing dedication, collaboration and conviction – is forcefully bold, but with an immediately infectious appeal; a new marrying of complex musicianship and pop-heavy hooks laden with honest and heart-strung lyrics about being young, reckless and rough around the edges.  First single, “Forgotten What It Feels Like”, is a surging anthem for young lovers, strung up on thick riffs and layered with unforgettable harmonies.  The song’s B-Side, “Where Did All The Good Men Go?”, is a heartfelt but furious letter to the scoundrels and liars on every corner.

Continually writing and recording, Kid Champion provide a refreshing blend of technical talent, passionate song-writing and commercial-appeal that is hard to find amongst today’s mass-marketed and tailor-made sounds.
