King dude discography

King Dude (echter Name Thomas Jefferson Cowgill, kurz TJ Cowgill) ist ein US-amerikanischer Musiker, dessen Musik dem Dark-Folk, dem Neo-Folk oder dem American Folk zugeschrieben wird. Der allgemein düstere Klang wird zusätzlich von der tiefen Stimme des Sängers abgerundet. Die Texte handeln häufig von Tod sowie Schmerz. Aber auch Liebe, Sonnenschein und Erlösung finden Platz in den Liedtexten. Teilweise entstehen kleine Parallelen zu Johnny Cashs Musik.

Since 2006, his devotional rock ‘n’ roll has been both the medium and the message; his throaty baritone and devilishly visceral songwriting the tools he wields to ignite the fiery spirit of revelation in all who encounter him.
  
  Thanks to past releases on Dais, Avant!, Bathetic, Clan Destine, and Ván records, a number of high-profile festival appearances, and a relentless tour schedule—often alongside the likes of Ghost and Earth—the silver-tongued singer/songwriter has found an ever-expanding global audience with whom to share his prophetic vision of hope and salvation: a willing congregation whose raised voices and stomping feet reliably turn his shows into Luciferian tent revivals.
