Gary Clark Jr & Marcus King

Gary Clark Jr & Marcus King

Gary Clark Jr & Marcus King at the Charlotte Metro Credit Union Amphitheater in Charlotte, NC. If you like rock with core blues guitar licks, then Gary Clark Jr & Marcus King both fit the bill. These 2 guys are the up and coming premier names in Rock/Blues music. If you get the chance to see them, grab tickets and go. Marcus King is in his early twenties and hails from Greenville, South Carolina. He started played guitar around the age of 4 and played his first professional gig at age 11. Marcus is a 4th generation guitarist who learned to play from his father. The Marcus King Band formed in 2013, and Marcus has been on the road since touring with all kinds of big names. His latest album is produced by Dan Auerbach from the Black Keys. Marcus's guitar playing is amazing and his voice is soulful, a great combination that will take him to the top quickly.

The headliner of this show was Gary Clark Jr., who is one of the best live players I have ever heard. I like his live stuff more than his albums. His raw live sound is unmatched. When he came out on stage they boosted that sound and bass and it went right into your body, but then again we were on the 3rd row. Gary played and incredible set with his band and the crowd was loving every minute of it.
