After bursting on to the scene with their 2017 EP ‘Eye On You’, BIG KIZZ has returned with a proper album and it is pleasantly powerful. Nothing like the doom ‘n gloom of some of their previous acts, the folks within BIG KIZZ are all about high energy rock and roll with a fiery punk undercurrent to it.
Nuances of 60s era Beatles or The Who are intact but there are flourishing vibes of such 70s rowdies as Ramones or Talking Heads. Check out ‘Music Is Magic‘ for yourself below or pre-order / purchase it HERE.
