A Boston-based traditional blues duo almost eerily reminiscent of the like-minded Fabulous Thunderbirds, the Radio Kings primarily comprised vocalist/harpist Brian Templeton and guitarist Michael Dinallo. Formed in 1991, the group debuted in 1994 with the Icehouse label release It Ain't Easy, a showcase for their clear affection for the gritty sound of giants including Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter and Slim Harpo; Live at B.B. King's followed a year later, and in 1998, the Radio Kings returned with Money Road.

Always considered one of the hottest live (blues) bands anywhere, the Radio Kings released two albums on Icehouse Records. Barnburners by any standards, these CD's helped the Radio Kings achieve international acclaim. In 1995 they were deemed the "Sensation of the Year," at the Belgium R&B Festival, and where the band's debut album, "It Ain't Easy,' was that country' top-selling blues album of 1994. Both of these CD's are excellent examples of the high energy T-birds' style blues-rock.
