AK & The Red Kites is a rising modern rock band with a retro infused vibe bearing big riffs, foot-stomping grooves and vast melodic soundscapes.
The debut EP ‘Proverbial Storm’ (2024) title track was a Classic Rock Magazine Track of The Week. It revealed Knightley’s eclectic range as a songwriter and musician, from full on high tempo hard rockers, big riffs, to panoramic swamp vibes with incursions into territories likened to Rival Sons, Ritchie Kotzen and ZZ Top and garnered stellar reviews; “A unique fusion of delta blues, country, and high-energy hard-edged rock.” My Global Mind Magazine. A previous single from the EP ‘Stronger’ was also personally curated by Slash for his blues rock Spotify playlist and has amassed over a quarter of a million streams.
The debut album ‘Hotter Than The Sun‘ is out now, “A glorious collection of styles and influences from a wide array of sources, but it culminates in a beautiful vibe all its own, which harks back to classic roots with a modern twist.” Rock N Load, “This is right up there…not so much making a debut as planting a flag. 9/10” Maximum Volume Music, “A band that can light up a stage with both passion and precision.” Jace Media Music.
