Stained Circles and Every Night is a Saturday night Present :
King Automatic is a one man French extravaganza of blues, garage and electro. Former collaborator with Billy Childish and Voodoo Rhythms superstar, his twisted mess of styles and influences have drawn comparisons to a blend of Howlin' Wolf, The Cramps and Devo.
Watch the King perform live, sitting behind his organ, guitar strapped 'round his torso, sampling and looping his wild organ and blues harp sounds live on stage. We're not talking pre-recorded gimmicks, everythings happening live on stage, adding layer upon layer of farfisa and harp sounds, eventually climaxing in a complex yet primal sonic soundscape.
