Level 42’s Mark King delivers special Christmas gift
Heather Bloomgren of Wichita, Kansas got a very special present this year.
Heather has been making a concerted effort to get her favorite band, Level 42, to make an appearance in the United States by creating a Facebook page, and also making a string of funny and interesting YouTube videos.
Level 42, a band from the UK driven by singer and bassist Mark King’s incredible slap bass technique, has not visited North America in 22 years. Unfortunately they have not scheduled a U.S. tour, but King created a very special rendition of “All I Want For Christmas” video, personalized for Heather herself, but enjoyable for all.
To join Heather’s cause, visit her Facebook page and join her group to bring the band to North America.
Here’s the Christmas video from King:
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
