Formed in early 2015 in a dark cavern beneath
the streets of old Edinburgh, a lead-heavy brew of old school Metal and the
meatiest of 70’s classic rock emerges in the form of King Witch.
Drawing comparisons ranging from Black Sabbath and Candlemass to Mastodon and High On Fire, the
band’s debut EP, “Shoulders of Giants”
quickly earned them a fan base and saw them touring the UK and Ireland as well
as playing festivals in Europe such as the prestigious Sweden Rock Fest, Muskel
Rock and the Malta Doom Festival.
The powerhouse vocals of Laura Donnelly give King Witch an unmistakable sound, while Jamie Gilchrist
(guitars), Rory Lee (bass) and Lyle Brown (drums) provide a rock-solid and
experienced backbone. Late 2017, King Witch signed to Listenable Records who released the debut album "Under The Mountain" on the 9th
February 2018. Following the release of
their record to much acclaim the band hit the road around Europe and the UK, from Sweden to Germany to Belgium
and the United Kingdom during May 4th through June 8th.
Wherever they roam, King Witch has
a formidable reputation on stage and following the announcement of dates in
Ireland & Scotland in October, Scapegoat.tv and Wall Of Sound Recording Studio have put together a
full live recording from a King Witch show in Edinburgh, Bannermans Bar on September 15th and we’re
excited to premiere the show at THE SLUDGELORD below. So turn up the volume and watch your speakers die!
