Knighthood

Frank and Paul met by accident at a gig in Cumbria, North-West England in 2011. It soon became apparent that they had a similar musical history, mutual contacts and they shared stories of life on the road especially in Europe. By the end of their second meeting not only had they written a song together but they had a finished mix of it. This triggered a writing frenzy and their common ground in musical taste made for a very comfortable and swift writing partnership. To complete the line-up they recruited top Northern session drummer John Powney and the super energized bass playing skills of Luis Antonio Gutarra. Their debut album is scheduled for release this summer. Their music is hard hitting guitar driven classic British rock drawing on influences from the likes of Bad Company, Deep Purple, The Stones, Zeppelin, Queen, AC/DC, Dio and The Who. Knighthood are a new band featuring Frank Knight - Vocals ex Wild Knight/X-Wild and collaborator for Accept, UDO, Jorn and many others, and Paul Curtis - Guitars/Producer ex Gypsy/Lady Luck/Balance of Power/Tytus Groan/Faithealer
