"Stomping through genres with stadium-sized personality, Kid Bookie embodies what it means to be a capital-R rock star in 2024" – Kerrang!
“…a fascinating, furious and thrilling look into the mind of an artist that is always two steps ahead of the curve.” – Rock Sound
“…commendably vulnerable…balances grit with gentle musing.” – Metal Hammer
“Bookie's back with more eclectic alt metal and venomous grime.’ – Classic Rock
"Deliriously sticky riffage, an unexpected and addictive flow between incendiary metalcore and raw acoustic moments, trap verses that take us into triumphantly guttural growls." - Alternative Press
Following the release of his critically acclaimed new album ‘SONGS FOR THE LIVING // SONGS FOR THE DEAD’ (available now on MARSHALL RECORDS), multifaceted alternative artist Kid Bookie shares updated touring plans for 2025, including Slam Dunk Festival and EU dates with French metal band DAGOBA, and further details on his upcoming collaboration with Vended’s Griffin Taylor.
“Ninety per cent of my tour was cancelled’ the enigmatic frontman remarks. “The 10% that survived will have to feel 500% of the anger. Celebrate the death of the old with me; welcome in the era of the new, no hold bars, no prisoners, no fucks given, even you.”
Following up on social media teases about his new track ‘Get Out,’ Bookie exclaims, “If rock is dead, how are Griffin and I still alive? We came together to create something that’s not just metal-metal-metal, but rather an evolution of where rock can go or is going. Whether you like it, love it, or hate it, evolution is necessary; this is where we start.”
Fans should keep an eye on social media for further teases on the track. More information and tickets can be found—HERE, and purchase the critically acclaimed album SONGS FOR THE LIVING // SONGS FOR THE DEAD’—HERE

MORE ABOUT ‘SONGS FOR THE LIVING // SONGS FOR THE DEAD’
Kid Bookie's latest album, "Songs For The Living / Songs For The Dead," features 11 genre-defying tracks crafted with collaborators such as Billy Martin of Good Charlotte and Mikey Demus of Skindred. The album includes producers like Tom Mitchener (Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes) and Romesh Dodangoda (Bring Me The Horizon). It marks a bold evolution in his artistry, blending rock, metal, and rap into a singular sound that defies conventional expectations.
Through his music, Bookie candidly reflects on his struggles with acceptance, self-doubt, and the pressures of growing up in London. Themes of inadequacy, heartbreak, and obsession with death are juxtaposed with resilience, defiance, and triumph. His refusal to conform to cultural stereotypes, particularly as a Black artist in the UK, resonates deeply, making his work both personal and universally relatable.
“A lot of this album is about feeling inadequate,” Bookie admits, revealing a vulnerability that drives the raw, authentic sound of the record. By embracing his insecurities, he has created his most self-assured album yet. Bookie’s unique approach challenges norms, making him a standout figure in today’s music scene.
