Krystal King

Krystal King is your “next door redneck,” bringing you relatable country songwriting with vivid and humorous imagery. Like her alter ego, Loretta Lynn, she's not afraid to say what she is thinking- whether that's diving into heartfelt emotions or picking on her husband in songs like "You're the Reason That I Drink."  Originally from Hickory, NC, King is now based out of Nashville and tours nationally. She has played iconic stages such as the Listening Room Cafe and Tootsies Orchid Lounge in Nashville as well as Festivals with headliners including Walker Hayes, Craig Morgan, and Beth Neilson Chapman (Faith Hill’s “This Kiss). Recently Krystal played the VIP Lounge for the Ascend Amphitheater for the Lainey Wilson Concert.  Krystal has released her debut album March 2025 featuring 7 original songs and also has had success as a songwriter with cuts from artists Thomas Kavanagh, Kirstie Kraus, Laura Rabell, Taylor Hughes, Allison Asarch, and Zach McCabe. "Who Am I Gonna Love," a song released by Thomas Kavanagh and Kirstie Kraus, has been featured on The Ty Bentli show and stations in the UK including BBC Radio. Taylor Hughes “Jesus & Jail” won Song of the Year in Lexington, KY.  In addition, Krystal was the 2018 winner of the Hickory Oktoberfest Songwriting Competition & 2019 Old School Songwriting Contest.  When she is not performing, Krystal is a weekend DJ on Radio Margaritaville on SiriusXM every Saturday & Sunday 10-3 ET.
