One of their first songs to ever be recorded, “California Waiting” doesn’t ring true to our sweet state this month!

That’s right, folks. Kings of Leon are coming BACK to San Diego for a night of concert-amazingness, Friday, April 28th!

Playing at the Mattress Firm Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, these American brother-rockers (and a cousin) will be joined by equally awesome band (one that’s keeping it out of the family), Deerhunter.

As of today, April 21st, you can still snag tickets starting at $29/each. Direct link to those tix for you here (we try to take the hassle out of things for you, San Diego)!

Get on it!
