Kings of Leon: Small shows are beautiful

2nd July 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kings of Leon consider there to be "beauty" in both intimate concerts and arena shows.

The US rock band, comprising of brothers Caleb, Nathan and Jared Followill and their cousin Matthew performed to packed-out arenas in over 50 cities in North America and Europe last year, although they still make sure they find time to perform smaller concerts.

As much as they appreciate performing to a massive audience, the rockers have fond memories of starting out in the late 90s doing small shows and consider it important to remember their roots.

"It depends, obviously there's a beauty in both of them," they replied, when asked by BBC Radio One whether they prefer big or small-scale performances.

The rockers also expressed the special place Britain holds in their hearts. The band have always been well received in the UK, and consider British fans to be some of the wildest.

"This is the place we gauge the rest of the world around," they explained, adding audiences in the capital London are "pretty insane". (C) Cover Media
