King - Hobo Leaving Letter Blues

King Hobo is a rock band from Sweden, formed in 2005. Jean-Paul Gaster from Clutch met Opeth keyboardist Per Wiberg and they jammed together. they also allowed other musicians to join them, with the motto of "get funky or get out". Later, they gathered at a home Wiberg rented in Sweden, and invited Kamchatka guitarist Thomas Andersson and Ulf Rockis Ivarsson, among others, to record an album in one week. The band has thus far released one self titled album. The band is called "a triumph of musicianship drawing on all the talent at the groups disposal."
