Stewart Macpherson (aka KING COLOBUS) is a South Devon based singer, songwriter and producer - creating darkly topical, baritone infused alternative blues that doesn’t shy away from complex subject matters.

Following the release of a self-produced, self-titled debut EP in 2016, KING COLOBUS has supported the likes of SEA SICK STEVE, BAND OF SKULLS, DE STAAT, MORIATY, SERENITY and CRAZY ARM. He was also a playlisted and featured artist on BBC INTRODUCING in both Devon and Cornwall regions. Some highlights of 2017/18 saw performances at LEOPALLOOZA, TUNES IN THE DUNES, GLAS-DENBURY, TURBULENCE FESTIVAL, GET RAD, FISHSTOCK and ROCKFEST.

KING COLOBUS collaborated with electronica artist ARTHR, releasing the club hit ‘WHISPERINGS OF THE WORLD’ through ARCADE PONY RECORDS in August 2018. January 2019 saw the release of a second 4 track EP, PEACE & LOVING and 2025 will be the year that he releases his long-awaited debut album, ‘Torn Between Age & Perseverance’.

Alex Bishop specialises in the construction of finest quality hand-crafted and custom-built gypsy jazz guitars. Although he predominantly builds Selmer-Maccaferri style guitars, he offers a range of contemporary design features. These include side sound ports, chamfered arm rests, custom rosettes and a modern re-interpretation of Mario Maccaferris own resonating chamber for both oval and D-hole instruments.
