Royal Blood is a British rock duo band formed in Brighton in 2012. Their sound is rooted in modern garage rock and blues rock.

The band, composed of bassist/singer Mike Kerr and drummer Ben Thatcher, was formed in Worthing in 2013. They gained attention when Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders was seen supporting them at Glastonbury Festival before the release of their first single. In November 2013, Royal Blood released their debut single "Out of the Black". They went on to support Arctic Monkeys for two shows and were nominated for BBC Sound of 2014.

Following the success of their first single, Royal Blood released "Little Monster" and a four-track EP featuring their previous songs. Their self-titled debut album was released in August 2014. The band performed at various festivals including South by Southwest, Liverpool Sound City, Download Festival, and Glastonbury Festival. They continue to captivate audiences with their energetic performances.

The latest evolution in Royal Blood's sound melds their fiery rock riffs with danceable beats influenced by Daft Punk, Justice, and Phillipe Zdar of Cassius. It's a small yet immediately refreshing reinvention, that pulsates throughout their new single 'Typhoons'. Frontman Mike Kerr's spiralling bass riff casts an hypnotic allure as it grows in intensity, while his vocals switch at will between a raw rock roar and a soulful falsetto. It's underpinned by Ben Thatcher's thundering beats, his taut rhythms infused with groove-laden hi-hats.
