Vaughan King (born 1982) is an English singer-songwriter for punk/blues bands 'NED' and 'Dirt Diggers'. He is currently living in Camden, London.
In late 2007, he formed a band that went by the name of Vaughan King and his Riff Raff. The band originally consisted of two cellists, a double bass player and the customary instrumentation of drums and guitars. However after turning to a more blues inspired set the band separated. His style was described as "thought-provoking" and "having an interesting and clever array of instruments." In a 2009 blog, Vaughan announced that plans are well under way for the follow-up to The Triumphant and hopes to release new material by the end of the year. In 2010 he released an EP entitled 'Ballad Of A Poor Man' which was released with an animated video. In early 2011 it was announced that the band would be known as 'Dirt Diggers' and they would be releasing downloads and demo's throughout the year.

“Should poor souls fear a shade or night,
Who came sure from a sea of light?
Or since those drops are all sent back
So sure to thee, that none doth lack,
Why should frail flesh doubt any more
That what God takes, He’ll not restore?”
