Kaiser Chiefs

It’s A New Beginning For Britain’s Kaiser Chiefs


April 10, 2014 - Our guests today, the British band Kaiser Chiefs, had a very successful start to their career with 2005’s Employment and 2007’s Yours Truly, Angry Mob, which yielded the enormous world-wide hit “Ruby.” It has been 3 years since their last disc and since that time original drummer Nick Hodgson has left the band and was replaced by Vijay Mistry. Their new album is called Education, Education, Education, and War, which is a paraphrase of a quote from Tony Blair. The newly energized band joins us live.
