Formed in 2017, The Alpha Rhythm Kings have created quite a stir with music fans, having crafted an exciting California sound, with what Roots Music Magazine No Depression calls "the badge of authenticity".

The band's top-quality musicians, with Robert Dehlinger's blazing trumpet and "magnetic" singing (Jazz Corner) leading the way, are a favorite with swing dancers, as well as with audiences in nightclubs, festivals, and concert halls.

The A.R.K.'s high-energy jazzy vibe has whisked them all over the globe, from the Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills to performances in Hungary, Austria, Germany, and back to the USA to play at the 2018 Grammy Awards Nominee San Francisco Chapter Celebration.

Frontman Robert has entertained crowds at many of the USA's most famous locales, including shows at Lincoln Center's Midsummer Night's Swing in Manhattan, George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch, Pixar Animation Studios, and Disneyland.

The Alpha Rhythm Kings' debut recording, California Boogie, featuring their exciting original arrangement of "Oh Marie", is a "truly happening party record" (Jazz Corner), and one of the "greatest swingin' releases worldwide" (Hey Mister Jesse).
