This week’s Spotify playlist is Kings of Rock. Kings of Leon and Phear Creative have been friends and collaborators for a long time. We have helped them release albums, create music videos, and most recently, design and launch their 2017 summer amphitheater tour. Check out a reflection of some of the most recent summer tour setlists, rounding out with one of our personal favorite tracks not in the setlist, Trani, and catch Kings when they roll through your city, this summer.
Have a great week!
