The longtime frontman for the British funk-pop group <a href="spotify:artist:0L9xkvBPcEp1nrhDrodxc5">Level 42</a>, Mark King was born in Cowes, England, on October 20, 1958. A onetime drummer, upon co-founding <a href="spotify:artist:0L9xkvBPcEp1nrhDrodxc5">Level 42</a> in 1980 he moved to the bass, honing a distinctive thumb-slapping technique which became an integral element of the group's sound. From their self-titled 1981 debut onward the quartet enjoyed considerable success at home, and in 1984 King took time out to record his debut solo album, Influences. After <a href="spotify:artist:0L9xkvBPcEp1nrhDrodxc5">Level 42</a>'s international popularity peaked in 1986 with the hit "Something About You," the band released a series of subsequent LPs before disbanding in late 1994, leaving King to resume his solo activities. The album One Man followed four years later. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
