Pink Moon Festival V Spotlight: Kings of Belmont

Kings of Belmont is from Charlottesville, Virginia. Ross, Max and Aaron have been playing music together since 2006 with the addition of Drex filing the position of drummer this year. Each member has been playing since they were in middle school and have continued to do so because it is something they like, “We play music because we enjoy doing it, we enjoy each other and it makes us smile.” 


The group used to have cook outs every Sunday in Belmont and used to joke that they were eating like kings. At that time, Belmont was kind of the bad part of town and the guys thought, “Who would want to be the king of Belmont?” They felt it had a nice ring to it and from then on have been known as the Kings of Belmont. 

While performing, the band loves “evoking emotion in the audience; moving people.” The next big thing for these guys is “world domination!” – besides Pink Moon Festival V, of course.
