A musical career is a living, breathing thing – a sonic moodboard of passions and influences that goes wherever the muse takes it. For Kris Barras Band, formed in 2015 and led by MMA fighter-turned-musician Kris Barras, that muse has guided them from blues beginnings to a hard rock renaissance. It continues to be one hell of a ride, having reached number 5 in the Official UK Album Chart and number 1 in the Rock & Metal Album Chart with 2024’s ‘Halo Effect’. That fascinating evolution continues on their forthcoming sixth album, ‘Monsters We Made’ (out 14th Aug 2026), with a sound that continues to suit the scale of the legendary venues they’ve played, including Wembley Arena and the Royal Albert Hall, while drawing comparisons with the likes Black Stone Cherry and Shinedown – which suits Kris just fine. “We wanted big singalongs, big riffs, big solos,” the band’s leader says of their creative ethos this time around. “The kind of hard rock music that belongs in arenas – dense, complex and able to energise the biggest crowds.” Such ambitions are easier said than done, but with the band’s guitarist/keyboardist Josiah Manning on production duties, it’s a task the Devon band – completed by bassist Frazer Kerslake and drummer Billy Hammett – have been equal to. For evidence, you need only listen to the colossal opening title track, which tackles the idea of being your own worst enemy and features what Kris rightly considers “one of the best choruses I’ve ever written”; or the epic ballad, “Otherside”, which plucks at heartstrings and orchestral strings alike. “I’d like to think this record could unite our older and newer fans,” says Kris of ‘Monsters We Made’, a record that will appeal to blues fans thanks to its contrasts between light and dark, as well as rock fans wanting to bang their heads.

Kris and the band were really on form, playing with their usual high energy. Great to hear them play a few acoustic numbers including a tribute to Taylor Hawkins. Hope to see them again next time they play, great evening!
Electric Ballroom Camden Town, United KingdomThe band were excellent and the music awesome. In my opinion though, the 100 Club is not the right venue for a rock concert. I will be going to see Kris Barrass again somewhere the crowd can rock.
The 100 Club London, United KingdomThe show itself was out of this world! One of the highlights was Fortunate Son ... however, King Tuts is not the best of venues. Hope to see them in a better venue next time round ...
King Tut's Wah Wah Hut Glasgow, United KingdomThe 5th time I've had the pleasure of seeing Kris Barras Band, get better every time I see them. Phenomenal guitar player. If you get a chance go and see him, guarantee you won't be disappointed.
The Brook Southampton, United KingdomAbsolutely brilliant evening. The support acts set a high bar and the Kris Barras band really impressed. This is the fourth time I’ve seen these boys and I think it’s the best I’ve ever seen them.
