Kings of Leon

Bluesy Nashville rockers Kings of Leon evolved into arena superstars with the 2008 international hit single "Sex On Fire", and its follow-up "Use Somebody".

From the searing blues riffs and enigmatically slurred vocals of their 2003 debut, "Molly's Chambers", nobody would have earmarked the Southern rockers as future arena-packing hitmakers.

Yet some sharp haircuts and a minor revamp later and the brothers Caleb, Jared and Nathan Followill, with cousin Matthew Followill, metamorphosed from the Bayou Strokes to Platinum chart-toppers with incendiary live shows and a flurry of guitars that felt inspired by childhoods spent traversing the Deep South with their father’s travelling evangelist show.
