We The Kings tour dates for 2009

We The Kings, Travis Clark (vocals/guitar), Hunter Thomsen (guitar, backing vocals), Drew Thomsen (bass) and Danny Duncan (drums), took their name from King Middle School, where all four band members attended. On their debut, the Florida natives embrace their upbringing showing love for their hometown of Bradenton. Songs such as “Skyway Avenue,” August Is Over,” and “This Is Our Town” speak directly to Bradenton locales and the culture of the resort community. “We really just wanted to reflect on how much our hometown means to us, how it sculpted us and, even beyond the band, how long we’ve all been together,” says singer/guitarist/songwriter Travis Clark. In 2007, the band inked a deal with S-Curve Records and went into the studio to create their debut album. The album was produced by S*A*M and Sluggo (Gym Class Heroes, Cobra Starship) and mixed by Lou Giordano (Plain White T’s, Taking Back Sunday) and Tom Lord-Alge (Fall Out Boy, Blink-182).

After several national tours supporting bands such as Boys Like Girls, All Time Low, Cobra Starship, and Madina Lake, We The Kings is currently headlining their own national tour. The “Long Hair Don’t Care Tour,” commenced on March 26 with support from Valencia, The Cab, Charlotte Sometimes and Sing It Loud. In addition to their headline tour, We The Kings will perform at Bamboozle and this summer they are on the entire Vans Warped Tour.
