“Hard Working Man” is the lead single for Young Blood. The 11-track LP follows 2020’s El Dorado, which like Young Blood was produced by Dan Auerbach. King and Auerbach recruited drummer Chris St. Hilaire and bassist Nick Movshon to back Marcus on an LP recorded at Dan’s Easy Eye Sound facility during the summer of 2021.
Inspired by filmmaker Quentin Tarantino, the “Hard Working Man” video stars Marcus King and was premiered by Relix. View the visual below:
