Kingswood Share Their Top 5 Rock Anthems
In honour of their recent single, a reimagined version of Tom Petty’s classic rock banger ‘You Wreck Me’, beloved Aussie band Kingswood share their five all-time favourite rock n roll anthems.
The Boys Are Back In Town – Thin Lizzy
This good time belter often gets a run as we pull into town to play a show. The bands awake, maybe a few have cracked a beer, and we’re rolling in ready for a big night. It gets the juices flowing
Take It Easy – The Eagles
I think all these songs will be related to their placement within tour bus life. This Eagles classic, which we’ve covered before, is a perfect mid drive cruising tune. Sunshine shining bright across the canola fields.
Love is only a feeling – The Darkness
This epic rock n roll ballad most often is played long after midnight, in the back lounge of the Bus, when energy and spirits are high. Air guitars are passed around, and we’re transported atop a glorious mountain.
When It Rains It Pours – Luke Combs
This one took a while to get to us, initially I thought it was stupid, well it is stupid, but the production and feel of the song is superb and it has become our reveille, wake up boys it’s time to get moving.
Prisoner Of The Highway – Ronnie Milsap
It’s late, we’re driving through the night, some may have retired to their bunk for the night. Let’s nut on some Ronnie Milsap. My guess is you haven’t heard of him, or his simple country heartbreak ballads. A song that resonates with the weary traveller.
