King James is a Hard Rock band recalling the classic era of Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Whitesnake, and Scorpions.
Formed in 1993, the original line-up was called a “Super-Group”, featuring Rex Carroll (Whitecross), Jimi Bennett (Sacred Fire), Robert Sweet and Tim Gaines (both of Stryper).
They recorded two successful albums in the mid-90’s, with accompanying tour dates. In the 2000’s, while the individuals each persued their various other group endeavors, the following of King James has slowly and steadily increased to the point where their second album “The Fall” was re-released in 2010.
Adding fuel to the fire, the group has reformed with original members Rex Carroll and Jimi Bennett, and solidified the foundation with the addition of Michael Feighan (drums and vocals) and Benny Ramos (bass and keyboards).
The new album “Maximus” is a towering, signature moment. Soaring vocals, beautiful melodies, incredible guitars, stadium-sized drums and bass, and songs that simply WILL NOT leave your head.
King James is back and better than ever, and they’re on tour NOW.
