KING
MUD (FEATURING LEFT LANE CRUISER'S FREDDY J IV & BLACK DIAMOND
HEAVIES' VAN CAMPBELL) TO RELEASE THEIR DEBUT STUDIO ALBUM "VICTORY MOTEL SESSIONS" FEB. 5TH VIA ALIVE NATURALSOUND RECORDS!
King Mud is Van Campbell from the Black Diamond Heavies and Freddy J IV
from Left Lane Cruiser. They joined forces in Los Angeles for a
marathon session that gave birth to an album of hard blues, blue-eyed
soul, heavy rock and feedback - Victory Motel Sessions.
They’re also joined by Radio Moscow’s guitar extraordinaire Parker Griggs
on a couple of indelible rockers. In addition to their eight original
tracks, King Mud also turn in rousing covers of both Wilko Johnson’s
“Keep It Out Of Sight” and The Troggs’ “I Can Only Give You Everything.”
If you dig the bands these musicians come from you’ll love this record!
King Mud’s Victory Motel Sessions will be available February 5th on CD, digital and limited edition colored vinyl through Alive Naturalsound Records.

“The band's crunchy chords and sound that's deep rooted in blues rock can be heard on the song we're premiering in
the form of 'Back It Up.' Channeling vintage Mississippi blues, the
song may sound simple, but if you listen deep, you can hear a couple of
musicians kicking back and having a great time.” - PURE VOLUME
"Blues don’t come any deeper, any harder, any sleazier, or any better than this." - MAD MACKEREL
"Left Lane Cruiser and Black Diamond Heavies men team up for King Mud. Result = dirty blues" - MAXIMUM VOLUME MUSIC
