Tony J King

  • Edinburgh Castle 681 Sydney Road Brunswick 3056 Australia (map)

With a few stories, an old guitar and kick drum, Tony J King creates the music of a journeyman with roots in the street-corner blues and urban folk of yesteryear. With influences ranging from James Elroy, Edgar Allen Poe, Homer, Kerouak and Joseph Conrad, King's latest album delivers slow-burnin, low-fi urban myths, half-truths, dark gospel and random fascinations that are represented in quirky musical tales honed from a pre-occupation with the unusual, the exotic and the downright bizarre.
