The Marcus King Band Announces CAROLINA CONFESSIONS U.S. & European Tour
By: Macon Prickett May. 09, 2018
The Marcus King Band has announced the "Carolina Confessions Tour," a national headlining run of dates beginning on July 31st. "We are thrilled to see all your smiling faces, and to bring you some brand new tunes for the 'Carolina Confessions Tour'!" says King. "We'll be returning to some of our favorite parts of the world, as well as seeing some new scenery! We'll see y'all down the road." Please see full list of tour dates below.
Pre-sale tickets for the "Carolina Confessions Tour" are now available for purchase HERE. All tickets will go on sale this Friday, May 11th.
Before hitting the road this summer with his own band, Marcus King is lending his incendiary guitar skills to As The Crow Flies, a newly formed outfit fronted by Chris Robinson of The Black Crowes. With a desire to breathe new life into this storied repertoire, Robinson has gathered five musicians whose musical journeys intertwine with his own, including King, guitarist Audley Freed, keyboardist Adam MacDougall, bassist Andy Hess and drummer Tony Leone. The band is currently performing music from throughout Robinson's history at a handful of select U.S. dates.
The Marcus King Band will then support Tedeschi Trucks Band and The Drive-By Truckers on TTB's "Wheels Of Soul" 2018 tour throughout July. Hailed by audiences and critics as "a champion of the summer concert season" (Cincinnati.com) and "a musically pure and soulful night of music" (Atlanta Journal Constitution), the annual summer tour is loved for its incredible musicianship, stage collaborations, and unpredictable set lists.
Recently, The Marcus King Band released the Due North EP via Fantasy Records. The digital-only EP consists of three songs the band recorded during their sessions at The Carriage House Studio in Stamford, Connecticut, for their sophomore album, The Marcus King Band, with producer Warren Haynes, and a fourth live recording: an epic 15-minute medley of the band's "Sharry Barry," "Sliced Milk" (Jeff Sipe cover), "25 Or 6 To 4" (Chicago cover), "I'll Stay" (Funkadelic cover), and "Gloomy Sunday" (famously covered by Billie Holiday).
The Due North EP is now available for streaming and purchase via all major retailers.
In 2016, The Marcus King Band released their sophomore, self-titled album on Fantasy Records. Last year, the band made their network television debut on CBS This Morning Saturday where they performed "Rita Is Gone" and "Ain't Nothin' Wrong With That." Marcus King also made the cover of Guitar Player Magazine in August of 2017 as one of "10 Young Players Spreading The Gospel of Kick-Ass Guitar."
