How the hell can he be so good. How do you play those fills, and runs, and rythm with NO band, and still carry it... dude is talented beyond anything people even understand.....holy crap.
Nah, He is better than most RRHOF members. He needs his own wing in the hall with the likes of Allman Brothers, Warren Haynes, Allen Collins, Guthrie Goven, Hendrix, SRV, BB, Robert Cray, Buddy Guy, Albert King, Robert Johnson, Derek Trucks, Clapton, Dickie Betts, the entire band “The Eagles” and Skynyrd and the list goes on and on. You get the idea. In other words; there’s members of the RRHOF and then there’s musical and guitar Royalty. No hall can hold them.
My 27 year old son brought this genius , prodigy. I'm forever grateful. He brought me this album not long after my 19 year old son passed away from heart complications Marcus you saved my soul. Thank you my Chaser would have loved this
Marcus and Billy strings together is the kinda pair that is a blessing from father God. Give them their flowers while they are here as it is easy to take for granted. Much like everyone that got to see Hendrix, Beatles, cream, SRV, etc. thanks for sharing these very sincere, personal performances with us and keeping the feels like we are just chilling in a room with the artist 🤙❤️ God bless you all and hope you have an amazing day 💕❤️✝️
Saw him in St Pete a couple weeks ago and didn’t want the show to end. Can’t wait to see him again live. Nobody out quite like him with his soul, passion and talent all mixed in one.
I always like the acoustic versions ( i.e: tiny desk concerts, etc)better than the studio full band versions. I wish they'd release these as singles, sometimes a talent like this doesn't need to be over produced and including background singers etc.. imo.
sir, i could not agree with u more! ill gladly take a live acoustic performance, & preferably one in a smaller venue, (the smaller the better) like @tiny desk or when an artist goes into a radio station and play a few songs live over the air, etc..ill pick the more intimate organic live unedited performance every single time without fail. i prefer all the live acoustic versions of my favorite songs over any professional studio album version that ive ever heard. the studio versions of most songs tend to sound way to over produced, with way too much distraction going on in the background.... alot of the time they add so much extra nonsence to a track in the studio, and it ends up sounding soo far away from how the artist couldve ever possibly meant for it to sound when they first sat down & wrote it, that it hardly even sounds like the same song at all! and when you DO finally get to hear the artist play it live/acoustic, youre like ahh-ha! so THIS is how the song was actually supposed to have sounded all along. just the way the ARTIST meant for it to sound when they wrote the damn thing. anything more than that just isnt really nessesary...and it only ends up taking away rather than adding something to the experience. at least in my opinion. ✌😉
There are two types of people, people who listened to Marcus King, and those who are yet to listen to Marcus King. Comparatives are lost on this raw talent, he's quite simply the best there is right now.
THAT LAST SONG ON THE DOBRO, IS OFF THE F..KING CHAIN, HOOK ETC. WOW! KILLER TALENT. GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER, FROM WILLIAMSBURG BROOKLYN. I'M NEW TO GUITAR AND YOUR TALENT IS A MOF....G OTHER WORLDLY EXPERIENCE. THANKS FOR SHARING. GOD BLESS YOU SIR. THANKS TO THE CHANNEL TOO, FOR SHARING THIS AMAZING TALENT.
Other than bringing one of the next great up and coming artists, in all the interviews that I've seen him in including the questions within this video, Marcus king never says the wrong thing, all his answers is straight forward and amazingly consistent to what's being asked...what a down to earth kinda guy, keep it up bro,
angel rojas yea. I’m pretty sure bishop gunn has started a headline tour but I’m not positive. I’m still waiting for Marcus king to come to town so I can see him🤘
Was cleaning and having blues church dancing around the house, and Marcus King stopped me in my tracks.. lovely voice and his guitar playing speaks to my soul...
until this morning...as of about 3 hrs ago, i had never heard of this guy before. & yet somehow, as i sit here in awe of such talent, listening to him sing...i feel his voice & tunes are already burned into my heart & soul forever. in my experience the only thing in this universe with the power to make somebody feel that way is music, & that is straight up magical. i kinda feel like musicians are the ones who weild the power of magic in modern times. like merlin the magician, except with a guitar instead of a wand. just like the band Heart said, "hes a magic man, mama.." lol.
I was going down an Allen Stone wormhole until You Tube graciously guided me to this discovery. I had never heard of Marcus King before, but now all I want to do is hear more from him. Such a classic soul eminating from his voice and guitar playing!
Factologist, he was in Australia earlier this year. Him and his band played at the Northcote Social Club in Melbourne, there was a couple hundred people there... it was a special gig!
Well, looks like you're in luck! I just came across this right now: thecroxton.oztix.com.au/outlet/event/b7c4f7ea-259c-46fe-86c9-6ac20fa1bda4?Event=108595
Why does this remind me of Ray Charles but on a guitar..like a mash up Ray Charles and Chris Stapleton 😭🥰😻🤗I just can't....this is too amazing and beautiful. Great voice and guitar playing. Absolutely a panty dropper for sure. Smooth, romantic, blissful music😻🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️
Never listened to this cat ever...Holy Balls what a powerful voice...Puts all the Vocal Exercising, R&B singers to shame...Oh wait he's got sweet licks on that 6 string...Great Job
My favorite young artist playing the most killer guitar I’ve ever seen . Wanted it the moment I saw it. Didn’t need to hear it . Can’t afford it , that axe is a custom D’eangelico. Gorgeous , and in Marcus hands , sounds amazing .
Good God the voice on this guy (and his playing). He's so freaking talented. It's like his voice was carried down through the ages, finding him in this incarnation, to channel all of the greats.
I saw him last week in Kansas City at The Truman. I left totally impressed. So much soul in his sound for his age. I love it and will continue to follow. Will see whenever I can. Thank you and continued success!!
How the hell can he be so good. How do you play those fills, and runs, and rythm with NO band, and still carry it... dude is talented beyond anything people even understand.....holy crap.
He sure makes it look easy. And it isn't...

Bobby Robertson, nailed it. Raw, uncut talent without the studio twist is the best. I agree 100%. No need to dress it up when you got that talent.
This Recording Is Definitely Single Worthy!!
Yes agree 100%..This version of One Day She's Here is nuts. I'd like to see him do a solo acoustic tour
Totally and utterly agree... It shows the real talent...
Are you kidding me?!?! Beautiful Stranger is a dead set classic tune for the ages. Blew my frickin mind wow 🤯🎶👌
100% agree with you! In fact when I first heard it I thought it was a 50 year old classic being redone. WOW!!!
Give me chills.. man that young man ain't nothing but fire.
I absolutely agree!
That song is a timeless hit with just him and the guitar. It needs nothing else!
Marcus is a Great singer, guitarist, and song writer! Much Respect Brother.
Just discovered Marcus King today....wow
It only gets better and better. Start from the start. Can see the progression as a man in the lyrics and style.
Tonight for me on a PBS Special....Makin this old 74 yr old lady staying up late!!
One of the most talented musicians I’ve ever heard. Just incredible.
💯 agree. This is what the world needs.

Another phenomenal artist deserving of a Tiny Desk Concert
Good god, every damn song makes you cry!! He's a genius!!
Wildflowers and Wine.....that's just phenomenal!
I agree 100 percent I can just hear Bobby Bluebland or Ray Charles doing it so much soul and feeling in this one!
Love this King!
But TH-cam stuck an ad right in the middle of “Beautiful Stranger!” Come on YT! The Hell’s wrong wichu’?!?!
Wifey n i were blessed enough to watch the Marcus king band live in Tucson. Early 2019. Dope. AF
Along with Bishop Gunn.
angel rojas I bet that was an awesome concert. I saw bishop gunn open for the stones and they are great
@@codymchenryguitar5192 yes it was. Not a big venue but its what i prefer. Actually left liking bishop gun more. They should NOT be opening. Lol
angel rojas yea. I’m pretty sure bishop gunn has started a headline tour but I’m not positive. I’m still waiting for Marcus king to come to town so I can see him🤘
This is it! This guy has what the world needs. So honest!
He plays Appalachian jazz! With a heavy dose of Muscle Shoals blues thrown in. Too good!!!
Apt

I never heard of him until about 10 minutes ago. Now I'm in awe.
A friend turned me on to him last week, he grew up about 20 miles from where I did in SC, he is the real deal
@@wingracer1614 So did I.
Love & music brother, love & music, the only things that give you that feeling.
This guy has the answers to the universe
Wildflowers and Wine . What a tune , what a performance . And the tag tune , The Well, what a finale . This kid is the gift.
Holy Crap! That sound!
This guy blew me away with his vocals.
Glad I came back to this session . Can’t wait to see him and crew again in the Midwest.. .F Covid. !

Exact same!! They're both phenomenal!! :)
@@amandafeliciano542 the "is this love" performance at Bonnaroo by Allen Stone.

@@Artress357 thank you, they are indeed!
Wowww. This guy is the real deal. One of the greatest musicians of our generation, easily. PLEASE COME TO AUSTRALIA

I first heard Marcus King at the 2015 Christmas Jam in Asheville and was blown away. Seeing Marcus play with Warren Haynes made the show.
Holy Shiiitt...Just a guitar and a voice..amazing.
Dude is good!
Why does this remind me of Ray Charles but on a guitar..like a mash up Ray Charles and Chris Stapleton 😭🥰😻🤗I just can't....this is too amazing and beautiful. Great voice and guitar playing. Absolutely a panty dropper for sure. Smooth, romantic, blissful music😻🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️🙇🏼♀️

Great questions dude!
Doesn't get any more real than this Cat! A wonderful song writer, musician and person!
