Caleb and Nathan of the Kings of Leon share their musical milestones with Matt Everitt in a programme first broadcast in 2014.

The Followill brothers graduated from being teenage longhairs bashing out Creedence covers in their Nashville family basement to global stars packing out arenas, enjoying number one albums and Grammy awards.

Brothers singer Caleb and drummer Nathan Followill talk about that journey, recalling how they emerged from their strict religious background (their father was a travelling preacher who banned them from listening to secular music) to form a band with their other brother and cousin. Their sometimes surprising influences range from from country and rock to Boys 2 Men and Kenny G's Christmas album.

They also look back on how they coped with their sudden rise to fame in the UK while still teenagers, their battle for recognition in their native US, their triumphant Glastonbury headlining performance, the impact (both positive and negative) of their huge worldwide hit Sex On Fire and the internal pressure that nearly split the band up in 2011, following their poorly-received Come Around Sundown album.

And, of course, they dig into their record boxes to choose amazing music by Ricky Skaggs, Tommy James & the Shondells, the Beach Boys, Tom Petty and the Allman Brothers.
