**Leslie D. King - Regional Tour**  
_La La La's, Front Bar (free entry)_

  

Leslie D. King, the southwest country boy, the soul-soaked rock ’n’ roller

who wears his heart on his sleeve. Hailing from Cobden, Victoria, his

music transports listeners from the hustle and bustle of the city to the

golden fields of the Australian countryside, blending raw emotion, powerful

storytelling and timeless rock ’n’ roll spirit.

  

After stepping away from music to embrace life as a husband and father,

Leslie spent the past few years honing his craft and finding inspiration in

family, love and the everyday moments that matter most. Now, with a

collection of songs forged through life experience, he returns with

renewed purpose and is preparing to unveil his long-awaited debut

album.

  

His Introduction to this latest work is his first single ["Gold",](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43Z8-bCB_Vs&list=RD43Z8-bCB_Vs&start_radio=1) which explores

the the feeling of having to keep up appearances in order to be accepted,

only to find that his true acceptance has come from finding his peace

within himself, that "Golden" feeling of fulfillment, which, after spending

plenty of time in that pure south-west country air with his nearest and

dearest, has become more apparent than ever.

  

He is backed by his powerhouse band, he calls The Trembling Shakes,

Leslie delivers a high-energy blend of soul-soaked rock ’n’ roll inspired by

Creedence Clearwater Revival, Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats,

                    Alabama Shakes and The Rolling Stones. Together, they create a sound

built to keep hips shaking, toes tapping and crowds moving long into the

night.

  

One town at a time, Leslie D. King is carving out his place on the

Australian blues and roots scene.
