His debut single, "Tonight Tonight", was released in mid-2014. Marshall Altman co-wrote and co-produced the song.[3] Taste of Country reviewed it favorably, saying that it is "a great hook over a strong beat, all built sturdy country voice. King solidly follows in the footsteps of many modern country hitmakers, unveiling a debut single that is fun and catchy and will immediately have one hitting repeat for a second listen."[4] It entered Top 40 on Country Airplay for the chart dated September 13, 2014.[5]
