About



King Goon is a Swansea-based band that has been making waves/causing choas  in the local music scene since their formation way back in 2011. With their unique blend of ska, folk and punk influences, the band has gained a reputation for their frenetic, energetic live performances, filthy mouths and catchy, melodic songs.

In 2022, the band released their debut album, “Admit Nothing! Deny Everything! Lie! Lie! Lie!” which received positive reviews, and have spent their time since playing numerous shows to promote it, including headlining stages at Swansea fringe, Brecon fringe and Gwen Gwen festival and playing at Swansea Arena.

King Goon are set to release their follow up album “OH MY!” in late 2025 having recorded the bulk of it at the wonderful Mwnci studios in west Wales. Several singles will precede the album release, with of course, massive launch party planned
