Garage-rock duo King Khan [ tickets ] & BBQ Show is getting ready to take its outrageous performance for a spin around the US.

The group, comprising Montreal-bred musicians Mark Sultan (BBQ) and Blacksnake (King Khan), will visit nearly 30 cities from coast to coast beginning Oct. 27 in Detroit. The club tour is also scheduled to cross into Canada for a Nov. 7 gig in Vancouver. Details are listed below.

Sultan and Blacksnake played together in the Montreal band The Spacesh--s until the punk rockers toured Europe and Blacksnake decided to stay behind in Germany. Sultan moved on with Les Sexareenos and started his one-man band, BBQ, while Blacksnake started King Khan & The Shriners. The two later reunited as a duo, honing their craft with live shows around Germany and Spain, and releasing their self-titled debut in 2005. They followed that album the next year with "What's For Dinner?" released on In The Red Records.

King Khan & BBQ are known for their riotous live show and eclectic mix of music that smashes together everything from punk rock to doo-wop. Their bio describes them as "Two guys. One smashing a snare, bass drum and tambourine with his bare feet, molesting his guitar and singing like a possessed angel. The other spinning and howling like a freak and belting it out on his guitar like a savage."

Aside from King Khan & BBQ, the musicians continue to work on their other projects. Last year, Sultan released "Sultanic Verses," his first solo effort under his own name, and King Khan & The Shriners put out "Supreme Genius of King Kahn" earlier this summer.
