Artist description If you’ve ever held your own private rock concert, in your car, speeding down the road at 90 MPH with “Exile On Main Street” blasting at sonic decibels, this band is for you. Next of Kin plays no nonsense rock and roll, the kind that goes perfectly with a smoky bar and shot of Rebel Yell on a Saturday night. Rock pioneers, they may not be, and they’d be the first to admit this, but preachers of faith that all you need are three chords and an attitude, hell…they’d probably sell their souls to drive that point home. Next of Kin mixes a sound of blues-rock, country and punk delivering a pure and honest brand of original bar band rock-n-roll.

Artist History Formed over five years ago, Next of Kin has played some of most well known, and some not so well known, stages in the Greater Philadelphia area.

Group Members Chris Tamase: Guitar & Vocals. CT’s four on the floor guitar sound is the perfect complement to his songwriting and dirty ass rock-n-roll vocals. Mark Bongo: Drums & Vocals. MB is also an accomplished songwriter and vocal stylist in his own right. Hailing from a background in country music, MB is the powerhouse behind NOK’s take no prisoners sound. Peter K. Ralston: Bass & Vocals. PKR knows how to lay back the rhythm so much, it should be against the law.
