The Marcus King Band - Full Session - 2/27/2017 - Paste Studios - New York, NY

[@jordanmccallum6866]

People moaning about how there's no new great artists out there just aren't looking hard enough. Turn off the top 40 radio, put away your mainstream music mags and start digging! There are some straight up geniuses keeping the blues, soul and even hip-hop alive! I am loving this sound, a collaboration of blues and jazz transitioning seamlessly throughout each song. The talent these guys show at such young ages make me furious with my life choices!

[@MaynardOwns]

Yeah their points are always missing a key word. Mainstream music. If you dig deep there is plenty of amazing shit around, maybe more so than ever before.

[@67stardust]

I hear you brother.... at the crossroads of my life I bowed to the pressure of the family life (not that there's anything wrong with that) BUT if only i'd followed my true passion... music .... sigh... 30 years later and I'm going to see this young genius tonight in Sydney... woot! can't wait... If i didn't live the dream myself, I can sure bask in the light of people that are.. yes, you have to dig... but the treasures you can find are endless... and Marcus is one of them...

[@waynethera2712]

I’m a rock n’ roller but there is a tone of raw outlaw country and fantastic bluegrass that is swept aside too. Tyler Childers and Colter Wall for country and Mandolin Orange in bluegrass are just a few worth checking out. I think Chris Stapleton is mainstream enough now

I agree, I could have been learning my craft at an earlier age instead wasting my time. LOL (my dumb ass)

[@HowardWimshurst]

Oh man have I struck gold here

[@pjd417]

You are right about the gold how does a voice like that come out of a white boy

[@zackb1981]

It's overwhelming how good he is.

[@kevinwilson2082]

Exactly how I feel, Zachary, exactly.

[@Kronx1970]

Boss: I need you to go to the archive room and pull these files. Me: Ok, I'll be back in 24 mins and 59 seconds.

[@Christocalese]

To the 78 people that thumbed this down: what is wrong with you? This is GREAT music! Marcus King is such an amazing talent! Keep playing, brother!

[@zyeager83]

I have just discovered Marcus King today. His music is amazing! Big fan here!

[@lynnmcallister5926]

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 congratulations😊

[@JDWH]

I love how he makes sure to include the band, it’s always “our” or “we”

[@r.k.2000]

Holy shit, I just stumbled on this and while I was waiting for the song to start I thought, yeah, yeah, another kid (21 at the time of this video) wannabe blues artist - maybe another SRV clone or something... but YIKES! Tasty mature guitar right off the bat, a soulful voice, and a mature songwriting style, with R&B and soul influences. He's like a 40 year old seasoned artist in a 21 year old's body. Hearing his voice was like the first time hearing Johnny Lang - waaayyy beyond his years. He's the genuine article.

[@tcoupe58]

Johnny Lang is also the nicest kid you'd ever want to meet!

[@edkerry87]

Yeah. This kid is way, way ahead of schedule.

[@noprob250]

[@DeezNuts......NC.]

[@BigfootBilliards]

i called bullshit but hes real as fuck

[@blackbeans4me95]

Yup I was blown away

[@colleenobrien4547]

I saw him last night at Madison Square Garden opening for Chris Stapleton. He is amazing. I am looking up all the music I can find of him playing. Love his voice and soul vibe.

[@crfabrepair4938]

i about lost my jaw when this man opened up the pipes.

[@blackbeans4me95]

💯

[@martinsmith3336]

[@markbabcock6811]

Pretty talented “group”. Thank you guys for doing what you do.

[@Jrody_]

Seeing Marcus King live in Charlotte, NC at the Rabbit Hole was probably the best live music experience I have ever had. Truly a gift.

[@BoSSLeVeLs]

That voice is effortless ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@patrickwilding8198]

Thanks for sharing. Great song writer, great guitarist, great singer. Greetings from Italy! 💚🤍❤

[@Richardbriggsphoto]

[@kylecarson4019]

as soon as he started singing..... slapped the fuck out of that like button

[@305dadecounty_grabberbluem5]

How can one guy be blessed with this much talent???? lol....I don't care to know, but I'm sure happy to listen to this on a frequent basis!!!

[@NickSpaloss]

My friend has an extra ticket for tonight at the Beacon theater in NYC, Row A. Never heard of him and not the biggest fan of blues/country but holy shit.... he and his band are amazing. I feel so lucky to be able to see this young man tonight. My dad says hes a future legend. I see why. I cant wait to witness this. And Dexter is my favorite show, love how that inspired the first song he plays. Poor Rita...

[@bargainhunter2404]

This boy is unreal...One of kind talent.

[@bigpickinsmusic4285]

Out of this world talent. Been lucky to see him live 4 times now. You cant learn what he does.. AND sing!?!? He deserves respect.

[@MrSteve72]

Just saw these guys live in Sydney Australia. They're currently playing at our annual Blues Festival in Bryon Bay. Awesome music!

[@duaneevans3795]

This is one of the most unbelievable performances that I've ever witnessed. Marcus King. He IS a master of his craft and what an ambassador! Proud to know him and to be a small part of his success!

[@Steepways.chadwick]

how do you know him?

[@duaneevans3795]

He used to practice at my recording studio downtown Greenville when he was 14, 15, 16 years old. My nephew played piano and we let them rehearse after hours while they were getting started. He was a savant. I knew where he was headed. And he's only just getting his feet wet. He has an amazing future ahead of him.@@Steepways.chadwick

[@stevenboyd593]

Had to drop by for a visit, the excellent sound quality shows off this beautiful performance, heart warming soul food, thank you

Moves you deep, Rock on Mr King

I was astounded when he started singing. Awesome. Very cool sound, band, vocals - he's waaaaay too good for a major label or the radio, so let's support him directly - thank goodness for the internet.

[@markcrowe8018]

You got your wish :-)

[@crazmos]

This is Excellent!

[@darrylsheppard4156]

love the voice. I could write 10 song against just the first song. It is the inspiration of the tones, and variances and where you could take it the vocal expressions. And that band is kickin.

[@kenmurphy6792]

Here's a great example of Marcus's song-writing talents. I take it that you are a song-writer yourself Darryl. I'd love to hear your stuff! In this video, Marcus talks about some of his experiences in writing his big hit "Goodbye Carolina" I just LOVE this version of the tune. Better than the "album version" Hope you dig it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIG2gaqXoJaCaJI @ 10:00 minutes into ~~~~ Beautiful song!

[@darrylsheppard4156]

@@kenmurphy6792 I will check that out. Thanks. Yes, I have been writing songs for the past 2 years. I just got a band together to perform them. We are getting great reviews from all of our stuff. Mostly southern, country, blues. I got about 350 songs to work with so far and counting..:).
