About Ron Kingston
Ron Kingston is recognized as one of Australia’s most articulate and individual voices, with a career that has encompassed recording, performing and writing songs and has enjoyed an international musical career spanning 10 years and over 15 countries worldwide. Ron's apparent passion for music was noticed during his high school years. With scraps of paper and a dusty old tape deck he wrote and recorded original songs that would lead him to an intriguing melancholy debut album titled 'Illustrated' not too long after he graduated. His formidable years kept him busy in and out of bands with an eye and target set firmly on the international arena. With a burning desire to make great albums and trot the globe Kingston moved to New York and played with some bands at some of Manhattan's finest venues. After several years of truly finding and his own unique voice and style and personal dismay at the limited music industry opportunities in Australia he got his big break performing in over 15 countries including China, Japan, Korea, Indonesia, India, Hong Kong, which led him to produce a second album with a more urban soulful feel. Kingston continues to write and perform at festivals, resorts & venues in some amazing countries around the world. During his time, Kingston has been praised by and performed in front of music legends such as The Stylistics, Kool and the Gang, Air Supply, Joe, Marcus Miller, The Roots, Allan Rich (Bodyguard soundtrack), Candy Dulfer, Alice Cooper, Keith Martin and many more. In 2008, Kingston performed in Bahrain in the Gulf for US, British and Australian soldiers serving in neighbouring Iraq and Kuwait. Ron Kingston was the only Australian performer in Bahrain during that summer period. Ron Kingston finished up several shows in Hong Kong in which one show was recorded: the album "Unplugged in Hong Kong" is available exclusively through Amazon and Itunes and CDbaby. In January 2011, Kingston met with American R&B producer and recording artist Keith Martin and began working on a collection of new songs for release. Their first collaboration is a duet with Mia called "My Friend". The music video was produced by Empire Films for the purpose of a Disney collaboration. Ron's new album "All You Need To Know is available now worldwide. www.ronkingston.com www.twitter.com/ronkingston www.facebook.com/ronkingston www.weibo.com/ronkingston
