Kings Of Lyon are the definitive tribute to Kings Of Leon. From the grunge and rock and roll of the pioneering first two albums to their trademark soaring stadium sound, Kings Of Lyon are inseparable from their American counterparts.
Kings of Lyon exploded onto the scene at the beginning of 2009 and have been propelled to the top of the tribute ladder with panache and a youthful vibrancy that secured them an O2 Academy headline tour that lead straight into their first European tour. A string of festival dates followed throughout Europe, the Middle East and the UK with sell-out shows in the country’s foremost music venues from Ireland to the Channel Islands along with high accolade in Q Magazine and a massive UK following.

Kings Of Lyon has performed throughout the world for various events and functions; weddings, universities, private parties, ticket only public venues, open air festivals and corporate functions.
The members of the band received their first television exposure when they were crowned ‘Global Icon winners 2008′. Global Icon was an online competition sponsored by ‘Sky Television’ which featured thousands of bands from Europe and gave exposure to the band’s original writing project, The Riffs. The competition, which was filmed and recorded in Manchester, lead to a university tour and the chance to work with the industry’s top producers; all adding to the band’s wealth of experience. Kings Of Lyon have since been privileged to be featured on several UK and Dutch television shows.
