MRG Live & Timbre Present: King Krule - Space Heavy Tour

King Krule is the primary alias of Archy Marshall, a native Londoner whose peculiar combination of grim if wit-peppered songwriting and volatile baritone vocals drew early comparisons to disparate punk forebears such as Joe Strummer and Shane MacGowan. Marshall was merely a teenager when he was likened to these and other figures who didn't hit their stride until their mid-twenties. It wasn't long before Marshall made his individuality apparent with elements of no wave, punk jazz, dub, and hip-hop gradually permeating his sound -- one further distinguished by his jagged style of rhythm guitar -- and adding color to his poetic gutter narratives. In addition to his mid-teens output as Zoo Kid and a later recording under his birth name, Marshall has released three albums as King Krule: 6 Feet Beneath the Moon (2013), the Mercury Prize-nominated The Ooz (2017), and Man Alive! (2020).
