Biography:
ANDREW KING'S initial creative work was in the visual
arts, studying at Caerleon and Lampeter, he subsequently exhibited both
nationally and internationally. After many years of experimentation, he
began his mature work with the first of his Emblematic paintings in 1991.
In 1994 he started making documentary recordings of vernacular and traditional
songs, music, and customs. He moved to London in 1995 to further this
work and the illustrative compositions that he was doing for a number
of the Post-Industrial / Neofolk bands of the time (L'Orchestra Noir,
Current 93, Ernte, Sol Invictus), and to complement this made his first
attempts at his own mangled versions of traditional song the following
year.
As well as his work with KnifeLadder, he has also worked
with Les Sentiers Conflictuels, Andrew Liles, Leisurhive, Brown Sierra,
and Sol Invictus. |
