Reviews
“Tennyson King has fast become one of Bendigo Blues & Roots Music Festival's favorite international acts. Whether playing solo or with a band, he's consistently warmed hearts and made fans of our local and visiting audiences. We look forward to welcoming Tennyson back to our music program again in the future, since things are finally starting to open up again, post-pandemic.”

“We had Tennyson King perform on the main stage at Shambhala In Your Heart and he put on a great show. Filled with beautiful music and kind stories. We look forward to having him back at our festival in the future.”

“Tennyson King played midway through the Peak Music Festival Saturday schedule and was an excellent transition from the quieter performers earlier in the day to the rocking blues in the evening. They provided well crafted original music performed with excellent musicianship and fully engaged the audience from start to finish. He will be welcomed back enthusiastically whether he comes as a solo act or as part of a larger performance. ”
