Hasn’t anybody else heard Marcus King?He’s only 26 at the moment and if you like rootsy music like blues,soul,country and jazz,then he’s the man.His voice is equally as impressive as his playing too!Unbelievable talent,check him out.

I discovered him via Billy Strings...they play together a bit.....a lot of soul for someone so young

I discovered Billy Strings last year via his excellent Renewal album.

Its great....but if you havent, you MUST check out "Home"...beautiful album. Ive never been into "country" or bluegrass...but this kid has completely changed both genres





And for the sheer audacity of the playing, this is a just watch :-)

Yeah, I listened to Home at the same time as I discovered Renewal, and they are both excellent albums.

Note sure that he's changed the genres as there have always been excellent string players about, but his approach to some of the songs is certainly novel.

Billy Strings is a great player too!Marcus King is playing at the Ritz in March,safe to say I’m rather looking forward to it!

There isn’t one. Same stats as yesterday.

10 submitted based on the sound they created. Mixture of lead and rhythm. Will probably only get a couple anywhere near the top.
