The Kings Speech

It's been almost 10 years since their debut album Youth and Young Manhood was released. During that time, Kings of Leon have gone from being humble sons (and cousin) of a Pentecostal preacher to one of the biggest rock band in the world. But how did they get here? You think you know... but you (seriously) have no idea.

Sure, it's nothing new, we've all seen it before: The rise of a Super Group -  which they totally are; their music, their lyrics, their live act and their physical appearance (not to mention their tweets) are something truly remarkable.  So, the band has decided to show us how life has changed for them Followills.


Talihina Sky: The story of Kings of Leon illustrates the rise of the Kings, from Nowhere, Tennessee to festival headliners all over the world. The struggle to ditch their strict religious upbringing for Rock'n'Roll, behind the scenes on-tour footage, drugs, alcohol... The Documentary will be shown on the New York Tribeca  Film Festival, as a work-in-progress but does not currently have a wider release date.

Yeah, I know now I've got you all excited, wishing you could see it right here, right now. But for now, just enjoy the preview and wait for the rest.
