Modern music would not be the same without King Crimson. This pivotal band is the Homo habilis of progressive rock and their circulating cast of members form the crux of a web that touches countless bands and projects to this day. Led by visionary guitarist Robert Fripp, the influence of King Crimson's jazzy, psychedelic, electro-rock is felt in almost every modern genre. Even Kanye sampled "21st Century Schizoid Man" on the boisterous "Power." David Singleton, Fripp's business partner, will play clips from pending King Crimson releases, field questions and speak to the lasting power of this iconic collective.
