They came from nowhere (actually America's Deep South, but for many
that's the same thing) back in 2003 and made an impact on the British
music scene that was more immediate and long-lasting than any other new
band in years.
Theirs is a unique tale, from their youth as touring musicians in their
preacher father's church to their discovery by the American music
industry and beyond. Joel McIver's book, the first ever Kings of Leon
biography, digs deep into their history to reveal a band like no other.
