KhanWood Clarke :: King Khan & Friends Go Country
King Khan has decided to go country. In a recent conversation with Khan, he said goal was to assemble a serious country band with the best and wildest of his Kukamonga Death Cult: something like our generation’s Highwaymen. He has enlisted some talented musicians to help create his vision. In addition to Khan, Demon’s Claws’ Jeff Clarke and his talented girlfriend Emily Blitz, Sean Wood from the Spits, and the Sadies are going to comprise the band.
Jeff Clarke
Khan explained to me that Jeff’s songs “are very reminiscent of Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings and his voice has a bit of Willie Nelson in it too.” Khan’s songs are more reminiscent of Lee Hazelwood and Johnny Cash, “adding a bit of psyche to the tradition of the murder ballad and some lonesome gunfighter anthems to boot.” Sean is “the missing link of the true Rockin’ country element….He is the Bocephus… the Phoenix rising from the ashes of punk…. He is the ranch dressing needed to make this the best salad ever.”
The Sadies
But they need some help. They need to raise $3,000 in order to fly Sean into Khan’s Moon Studios in Berlin to finish the album, so they launched a Kickstarter page.
