Acclaimed Nashville-based singer-songwriter Grant-Lee Phillips recently released his ninth solo album, Widdershins, on Yep Roc Records and today he premieres his new video for the single “King of Catastrophes” on Folk Radio UK.
“King of Catastrophes is a bundle of anxieties, disguised as a lullaby.” Grant-Lee Phillips explains, “I tried to squeeze in every cataclysm I could think of in three minutes, all the ones that rhymed at least – I could have gone on. We were snowed in for a few days in Tennessee. In my state of cabin fever, I made this video.”
The California-born singer, songwriter, guitarist, multi-instrumentalist, actor, film composer and visual artist began his career in the early ‘90s as the frontman of the acclaimed trio Grant-Lee Buffalo. Once named “male vocalist of the year” by Rolling Stone, USA Todaycalled him a “soulful balladeer” and Uncut hailed him as a “distinguished U.S. songwriter”.
