KING DUDE [[AUSTRALIA // USA]] :: ?????????? ???? ?????? ?????????? ???? ?????? ?????????? ????????

In a time when American folk music has lost touch with its bloody roots, KING DUDE [[the moniker for T. J. Cowgill]] seeks to illuminate the darkness with sex, death, love, insanity, + Lucifer’s light. Since 2006, his devotional rock ‘n’ roll has been both his medium + his message; his throaty baritone + 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, + Ván records, a number of high-profile festival appearances, + a relentless tour schedule, this silver-tongued singer/songwriter has found an ever-expanding global audience with whom to share his prophetic vision of hope + salvation: a willing congregation whose raised voices + stomping feet reliably turn his shows into Luciferian tent revivals.

He sings about death the way he sings about fucking. With inspiration torn from country, blues, Americana, + British folk (and a background in heavy metal), KING DUDE’s raw, hypnotic hymns channel the past while staring straight ahead into a revelatory future.
