Marcus King’s debut solo album, El Dorado, will be released on January 17 by Fantasy Records.  Dan Auerbach, who produced  El Dorado, observes, “Marcus is known by so many as a phenom guitar player, and rightfully so. He’s regularly the best player in the room, hands down. I was equally blown away by the way he can sing – so effortless, so soulful, straight from the heart.” As we noted in our recent piece on the 23 year-old King, he “continues to funnel his collected experience into a growing catalog of astoundingly mature songs, expressed through his preternaturally earthy voice and razor-sharp electric-guitar chops, both of which seemed fully formed even before the frontman exited his teenage years.”

Today we premiere the official video for “The Well,” from El Dorado. Reid Long (Eric Church, The Black Keys, Brothers Osbourne) directed the video which King explains, “captures the spirit of a gospel revival, the feeling of community, and the fellowship of us all coming together to feel something powerful.”

Marcus is currently on tour with the Marcus King Band and their upcoming dates appear below the video.
