Marvin King
Born to an air force family, Marvin Lee King began his travels practically at birth. After four years in Greenville, SC which is now home to Marvin and his children Holland Nicole and Marcus Lee, the next stop was London, England, and then on to Germany which is also home on his Mother's side.
Coming from a musical family it was natural progression to begin his career as a guitarist and vocalist in the European arena. The list of influences would go on and on, but to name a few: Jimi Hendrix; B.B. King; Eric Clapton; Jimmy Page; Freddie King; Duane Allman; Dicky Betts and Johnny Winter were all instrumental in developing his own unique style.
As a professional musician, Marvin's career accomplishments brought him to two major recording contracts. In 1978 with Polydor Records and in 1992 with Liberty Records (Capital Nashville) out of Nashville, Tenn.
All of these achievements could never fill the void in Marvin's life. So upon the birth of his first child, Holly in 1993, Marvin rededicated his life to Jesus Christ, stepped out in faith, and made a commitment to answer " The Calling". |
