King Champion Sounds has been played on NTS shows including Otologic, with Bathus first played on 22 November 2021.

King Champion Sounds is a Dutch experimental jazz and avant-garde rock band, based around Ajay Saggar (The Bent Moustache, Bhajan Bhoy) and G.W. Sok (former front man of The Ex).

King Champion Sounds came to life after being asked to open for Mike Watt at the start of 2013. Ajay picked up the challenge of opening for a musical inspiration (and friend) and wrote an entirely new set of songs for a one-off show. Recruiting G.W. Sok, Oli (Shrug / year Of Birds), Mees (a 17 year old wunderkind drummer) and a horn section featuring ol’ school jazzers Ditmer and Chris.

Different Drummer (2013) Songs for the Golden Hour (EP, 2014) To Awake in That Heaven of Freedom (2016) For a Lark (2018) Between Two Worlds (2021)
