EPK 16.10

ELECTRONIC PRESS KIT  LINKS Twitter Facebook E-mail Website Listen Watch A blistering assault of passionate Rock and Roll, with heart and hooks in equal measure. Deep in that yawning chasm of creativity opened by the sad demise of your favourite bands – At the Drive-In, Million Dead, Refused, and Yourcodenameis:Milo – four young men from Norway and England are plotting to fill the void. Formed little over a year ago, Carnival Kids are already two eps down the line, both packed with a blistering assault of passionate rock music, taking its cues from sources both violent and beautiful. Wielding hooks and heart in equal measure, the Kids weld the honesty and propulsion of hardcore to huge choruses and sing-along verses. It’s an uncompromising proposition; a furious tapestry of restless riffs, knitted together by a rhythm section as metronomic as it is grooving. Influenced by bands as diverse as Converge, Thursday and The Get Up Kids, this band is hotly tipped for bigger and better things. Gentlemen, start your engines – the Carnival’s coming to town.  BOOKING UK Fiona McGugan + 44 7503 89306 fiona.mcgugan@hotmail.com BOOKING SCANDINAVIA Espen Svendsen +47 454 21 822 espen@yeslive.no www.yeslive.no Live at the Shipping Forecast Live at the 3rd Degree Festival  TECH RIDER PA The band requires a professional PA system consisting of a Professional speaker system, a Professional monitor system capable of running 4 mixes, each with a separate channel of graphic eq and a Professional Quality Mixing Console at monitors and Front Of House. No special requirements for what brand all the different components are as long as they’re fully operational and it sounds good. LIGHTING REQUIREMENTS No special requirements for lighting as long as there are some lights. But preferably a few colour washes in strong colours such as blue, red, white, green and the occasional pink/purple. Orange also works. As long as it doesn’t look like a circus show, the band will be satisfied.  STAGE PLAN  PRESS PHOTOS  LIVE PHOTOS
