Multi-Platinum & Gold ARIA-certified, ARIA-nominated, and 4x Golden Guitar nominees, KINGSWOOD, return with a powerful tribute to one of rock’s greatest icons.
Blending the raw energy of classic rock with the rich storytelling of modern country, KINGSWOOD have built a reputation for electrifying performances and genre-defying artistry. Now, with their latest release, a bold reimagining of Tom Petty’s ‘You Wreck Me’, the band proves once again why they stand at the crossroads of heartland rock and country soul.
Fueled by passion, grit, and a relentless pursuit of sonic authenticity, KINGSWOOD breathe new life into this timeless anthem. Their rendition channels the reckless energy of love and destruction, honoring Petty’s legacy while stamping the song with their signature blend of soulful harmonies, driving guitars, and unfiltered emotion.
“It’s love, chaos, and obsession colliding at full speed. The feeling of being completely wrecked by someone, it’s something we’ve all lived through. Surrendering to a force greater than you’re able to control. The reckless pursuit of something you can’t quite hold onto. When we play it, we’re tapping into that raw, untamed emotion—like going into a boxing ring.”
From roaring festival stages to stripped-back honky-tonk sets, KINGSWOOD continue to push boundaries, bridging the spirit of Springsteen, Petty, and Alan Jackson with their own distinctive edge. You Wreck Me is more than just a cover—it’s a declaration of passion, power, and the unbreakable spirit of rock & roll.
In 2024, KINGSWOOD embarked on Australia’s longest-ever music tour, performing 112 shows over six months to over 60,000 fans. The relentless grind of the Hometowns Tour not only redefined KINGSWOOD as a live unit but also became a testament to their endurance, passion, and deep connection with audiences across the country.
