After Football, Linden King transitioned into music and was the lead singer in a country band titled "Linden King and Southern Steel" for several years in the early 1990s. The band primarily played at a night club called The Neon Cactus. There Linden King and Southern Steel worked on creating a more contemporary music style. They continued to play covers while working on some originals in order to move to Nashville. One of the songs the bank worked on was a new version of Riders in the Sky titled "Ghostriders". Linden King met a dance choreographer named Jim Beltz who, with the help of his partner Chuck Mackey, created a new country dance titled Ghostrider after the song.
