ANDREW KING

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 paintingsin 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'Orchestre Noir, Current 93, Ernte, Sol Invictus, etc), and to complement this made his first attempts at his own mangled versions of traditional song the following year

Since then he has created a number of sporadically issued albums and carefully chosen compilation appearances, the main ones being -
