Search - Signing Choir :: Signing Choir

Signing Choir is the side project of The M's bassist Joey King. Upon moving to Chicago in the midnineties, King immediately began tracking and demoing loads of material, venturing into a vast musical terrain. His true passion was music, and his move from the laid-back atmosphere of Arkansas was done in part to access a larger pool of musically minded individuals. Through acquaintances and coworkers, King found those individuals in one of Chicago's finest groups. The members of The M's are collaborative songwriters, and King added not only his five-string bass and baritone vocals, but also his flair for solid songwriting. After much touring, two full-lengths, and one EP with The M's, King started to go back to his older tracks and re-hash them into what would become his debut release under the moniker Signing Choir. With great help from all his bandmates and friends in the Chicago music community, he has banged out a true lo-fi gem. Reminiscent of early records by Guided By Voices, Pavement, and Super Furry Animals, King has tapped into a confident mix of pop and rock to showcase an eclectic batch of music.
