Marcus King is a Grammy-nominated South Carolina singer, guitarist, and songwriter whose music blends Southern rock, soul, and blues into something raw and deeply personal. He first made his name fronting the Marcus King Band before launching a solo career with his 2020 debut, El Dorado, produced by Dan Auerbach of the Black Keys. Albums like Young Blood and Mood Swings, the latter produced by Rick Rubin, showcase his emotive vocals and revered guitar work in equal measure, tackling heartache, addiction, and mental health with an underlying sense of hope. His most recent album, Darling Blue, is a soundtrack through the peaks and valleys of his mind and an ode to his beloved home, the Blue Ridge Mountains.
