KING OF SLUGS

About Me



No, its not a spelling mistake. Its not a grammatical error. Jack Shillingford and Joel Baker are King of Slugs.

We were brought up on a mix of soul and blues. We love music. We live and breathe it. Writing songs, recording, playing live, and generally being creative is our passion.

We have never recorded in a recording studio. We do it all ourselves on one tiny little 4 track digital recorder.

Come talk to us. We are very friendly. We dont bite. Most of the time.

Come take a look around the place and see what you think....

Sounds Like: "i promise and i swear that these guys are totally awesome their music will bring you to another world. voices of angels and blessed with such talent good to see they havent put it to waste ;] the reason why they are my current obsession i know that when i come home from work all i have to do is put their music on and lay with my eyes closed allowing them to take me to another place where i find serenity. what more can i say? - this is music to the ears i absolutely love it & i hope you guys love it too seriously check their myspace page out ;]
-Mary Joyce,

"King of Slugs are for badman and if you think you are gangster, you should listen to them. standdarrrd" - LEVO

"...and after that looking to get over to the east coast, maybe NYC, for the sole reason i want to be closer to you guys! "- Karen. Thats dedication right there. Making serious life choices based on King of Slugs. i Like it.
