Biography
RELIENT K played their first gig in December 1997, back when Matthew Thiessen and guitarist Matt Hoopes were still in high school and tooling around in the latter's Plymouth Reliant K, which inspired the band's name.
Over the last decade RELIENT K have perfected the art of unifying abundant amounts of cleverness, catchiness and sincerity. There is no better example of this than their latest effort 'Forget And Not Slow Down'. This pop rock powerhouse have blended the best of their previous albums to craft their best album yet, powerful and emotion-laced. "This may be the BEST album that RELIENT K has ever put out, period!" - Billboard
However it is the live arena which the band thrive, having wowed audiences on their last tour supporting Paramore, RELIENT K will be back on our shores as part of SOUNDWAVE FESTIVAL 2012. With an extensive back catalog of hits, audiences can be prepared for some of the biggest sing-alongs.
