Product Details

Growing up in Greenville, South Carolina steeped in gospel, blues, and Southern soul, King arrived fully formed as a guitarist and vocalist well before most players his age had found their voice. Warren Haynes recognized something rare here, the same intuitive connection between feeling and technique that defines the great Southern rock lineage, and this debut on Fantasy puts that gift on record for the first time with the clarity it deserves.


At only 20 years of age, Marcus King's dazzling musical ability is on full display throughout The Marcus King Band, the young phenom's 2nd full-length LP. The album was produced by King's champion Warren Haynes, who expertly wraps the band's muscular live energy around a rising young songwriter of unusual clarity and depth. The album was largely written during this past year on the road while the band played ever-larger venues and festivals to a burgeoning fan base. Haynes expertly captured the group's blazing live sound as well as the restrained and subtle talent of a passionate young singer-songwriter reaching well beyond his years and into the future.
