MARK SULTAN / BBQ is a cult figure, sorcerer, nutcase, and underrated gem. His legacy of LPs and 45s on labels like In The Red, Goner, Crypt, Wick/Daptone, Sub Pop, Dirtnap, Vice, Fat Possum, Bomp!, Norton, Dirtnap, etc... and his impressive list of rock n roll projects (The King Khan & BBQ Show, Ding-Dongs, Almighty Defenders, Les Sexareenos, Spaceshits, etc...) are an influential secret handshake. And that's just the way he likes it.“I’m a music fan. When I was a kid, finding some crazy, magical 45 nobody knew felt very empowering.” His unmistakable vocals and instantly transportive melodies use time as a tapestry, and mood as color, while retaining the sexuality and primitivity of the genre. “Some of my favorite music acts like a portal to me. It’s time travel. It’s a way to shift into parallel worlds. It's like magic.”Mark's notorious one-man band, ‘BBQ’, has long been lauded as an anomalous delight: an intense, improvised (and uncomfortable) show from which he rarely surfaces to take pause. He's toured the world over, from the Americas to Australia, Europe to Asia to Russia, and everywhere in between. He’s played hallowed venues like the Sydney Opera House and Carnegie Hall, as well as all of the giant, unnamable festivals.
