New material from award winning artist
New Single & Video
Tony Lee King, winner of the annual award for historical contribution to the Croatian blues scene, presents new single and video “Too Many People”, released under new record label Bluesman Music. The beautiful pop-blues ballad was recorded at London’s Leif Storm Studio, produced by Richard Causon, a top studio musician, who has collaborated with Ethan Johns, Tom Jones, Kings Of Lion and many other famous musicians. The author of the music is Tony Lee King, the lyrics were written by M.C. Queen, and the arrangement was made by Richard Simon Causon and Michael Messer. This interesting and emotional video was shot in Zagreb’s Štros, in elegant black and white technique.
“I have a cardboard box with about 40-50 cassettes of original music, on which there are at least two to three unpublished songs per cassette, a hundred ideas … One of those was “Too Many People”, which has existed for almost twenty years. The song is about a world that often doesn’t recognize the right people and most talented or just good people go through worse in life. It is an autobiographical song, written after negative experiences experienced with various people from the music industry. But I’m not giving up, I’m still going my own way, more optimistic than ever before.” says Tony Lee King.
