• Lil’ Band O’ Gold was born in Lafayette, Louisiana in the late ‘90s when rising young guns C.C. Adcock and Steve Riley recruited legendary swamp-pop singer and Excello Records house drummer Warren Storm for a new venture. Once Storm joined the fold, the Lil’ Band O’ Gold ranks expanded to include a who’s-who of master Louisiana musicians that boasted more than a century of hard-earned blues, rock, R&B, Cajun, swamp pop and jazz chops. The band and its self-titled 2000 debut album earned rave reviews across US press.

• With the release of the band’s long-long-awaited second album, the Lil’ Band O’ Gold fan base is about to get a lot bigger. Named ‘The Promised Land’, it’s also the soundtrack to a documentary film of the same name, by London based filmmaker Matthew Wilkinson, which screened at the Cannes Film Festival.

• Lil’ Band O’ Gold performed at the London O2 Shepherds Bush Empire on Tuesday 14 June 2011, and ‘The Promised Land’ documentary will be shown in full before band’s performance.
