A group of Verona, very much appreciated during their years of activity. The first singer and front-man of The Kings has been Dino Zambelli, a very popular singer and performer during the sixties in Italy (known simply as Dino). In the first years The Kings was practically the support group of Dino (Dino e i Kings). Dino has embraced soon after a brilliant career as a pop singer, and The Kings continued alone with another front-man, Renato Bernuzzi. The group abandoned the pop sounds and, thanks also to the more modern and strong voice of the new singer, the Kings were claimed by their fans a "real beat" group. During the summer event Cantagiro in 1966 they were choosen as one of the eight beat groups invited to the contest. The song they presented in the concerts was Cerca (look for). They proposed also covers, as many other groups (La risposta, the answer, from the famous song of Bob Dylan Blowin' In The Wind) but also some songs written by The Kings themselves (specifically D'Adda and Ottofaro) as the interesting Caffè amaro (bitter coffee).
