Before singer and guitarist “King” George Clemons moved to Sweden for what was supposed to be three months he lived in New York. While trying to make it in the music business he almost got caught up in the street life. Eventually, he took a good advice and went to Sweden. 40 years later and he’s still there. King George was born in Hampton, Virginia in a babtist family and moved to New York early on in his life. King George left the US with a few recordings to his crown. He had also befriended a certain Jimi Hendrix and the psychedelic inspiration would later become an enormous influence on King George’s work. In Sweden, he would first team up with the Harlem Kiddies before creating the King George Discovery. He continued with solo releases and also opened up a blues club in Gothenburg.
