The Marcus King Band Performs On ‘Conan’

Southern rockers The Marcus King Band served as the musical guest on Tuesday night’s episode of Conan. The appearance marked the group’s late night television debut.

Guitarist/frontman Marcus King, keyboardist DeShawn Alexander, bassist Stephen Campbell, trombonist/trumpeter Justin Johnson, saxophonist Dean Mitchell and drummer Jack Ryan performed “Where I’m Headed” from their forthcoming Carolina Confessions studio album. Host Conan O’Brien had a huge reaction when he came onstage at the end of the song, as he exclaimed “Good god, that was fantastic!” before embracing King in a bear hug.

The Marcus King Band recorded Carolina Confessions at the historic RCA Studio A in Nashville with producer Dave Cobb. “Where I’m Headed” is the opening track on the album which is due on October 5 via Fantasy Records. Watch The Marcus King Band’s performance on Conan below:
