King's Raleigh

Better known as the lead singer and songwriter of the psychedelic indie rock group Zack Mexico, John Saturley has an extensive catalog of solo music that he’s been bulding upon since 2014. In his solo recordings, the North Carolina native tends to stray away from the blues based, seventies influenced alternative rock of Zack Mexico in favor of experimetal, bedroom pop odysseys, and no two of his solo projects sound exactly alike. In fact, sometimes the duration of just one of his projects does not have any sonic continuity. His twenty minute single “Coricidin Cough & Cold” evolves from a gentle ambient opening to savage indie rock guitar shredding to electronic noise music and ends with quiet acoustic lo-fi sounds. No one knows what side to expect of Saturley at any givin live show, but with a wide variety of material at his disposal, you may end up stoned cold in a trance inducing psychedelic repetition, or dancing to 90’s influenced electronic music.
