This is more of a press release blurb than anything else, but I felt excited enough to share.
Kings of Leon are about to step into an excitingly manic week in America to support the release of their new record, the highly anticipated Only By The Night. The band are confirmed to be the music guest on Saturday Night Live this Saturday night, September 20th. Actor James Franco is set to host what should be a rather raucous and hilarious 90 minutes of television. Once the party dies down, Kings of Leon will move into release day, Tuesday, September 23rd, with a performance on the Late Show with David Letterman as well as an exclusive sold-out club date at New York's Webster Hall later that evening. Also on release date, Spin magazine hits the streets with a cover story detailing the true, deep complexities and behind-the-scene machinations of this world-class band.
Kings of Leon will be arriving in America after spending several weeks in the UK, where the new single, "Sex on Fire," has debuted at #1. This is the band's first #1 single in that country. The North American tour begins October 11 at The Joint in Las Vegas, NV. On October 14, the band will appear on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
As four when they will be close by here on tour, in Philly, it will be November 15th at the Electric Factory.
