The Marcus King Band Releases New Song, “Goodbye Carolina”, From Upcoming Album [Listen]

198

The Marcus King Band recently announced a new album, Carolina Confessions, due out on October 5th via Fantasy Records. Produced by Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, Sturgill Simpson), the new album showcases the 22-year-old frontman’s maturation as a songwriter, as King takes writing credit on all ten tracks, in addition to one co-written with The Black Keys‘ Dan Auerbach. The studio band features drummer Jack Ryan, bassist Stephen Campbell, trumpeter/trombonist Justin Johnson, saxophonist Dean Mitchell, and keyboardist DeShawn “D’Vibes” Alexander. The Marcus King Band has released the album’s final instant grat track, “Goodbye Carolina”, following the release of “Where I’m Headed”,  which premiered in September, and “Homesick” and “Welcome ‘Round Here”, in late August.

About the new album, Carolina Confessions, King told Billboard:

I wanted this record to focus a little bit more on songwriting and the structure of the tune itself.” King describes the ten-song catalogue as “the confessional side of things. Music, for me, is a way to say what’s on my mind and kind of a way to explain that — just like true confession, if you feel guilty and want to get some things off your chest. That’s how writing is and making music is for me.
