Bruce Marshall
 Local blues legend Bruce Marshall formed THE BRUCE MARSHALL GROUP in 1991 and has been performing and recording steadily throughout the US since their inception. Delighting crowds and garnering rave reviews at every stop, Bruce has developed a loyal fan following . He was on the road for most of the 80's with Bruce Marshall and the Clue, and then in '89 joined forces with Toy Caldwell (of the Marshall Tucker Band) and the Toy Caldwell Band hit the road in support of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Charlie Daniels and the Outlaws. The Toy Caldwell band recorded one of Bruce's originals with noted producer Paul Hornsby and Bruce worked on their major label debut.
The Bruce Marshall Group's live show treats their fans to a soaring ride as they rip through a catalog of original material that truly sets this band apart. They love to mix it up, whether it's pulling off exciting jams that build with dynamics and layering, or playing the concise arrangements of their songs with discipline and taste. The sound defies categorization, slipping seamlessly around a rootsy mix of styles. The interplay between Bruce and longtime guitarist Dave Cournoyer is the heart and soul of their performances and they always deliver. The band continues to work tirelessly and must be experienced live to be fully appreciated. Bruce has shared the stage with over 100 national acts including James Brown, Gregg Allman, Chicago, Bryan Adams, Bo Diddley, BB King, The Beach Boys and Joe Cocker among others. Venues include the Verizon Wireless Arena, Providence Civic Center and Holman Stadium.
An ASCAP award-winning songwriter, Bruce Marshall just released his 6th record, "Misspent Youth", and its currently enjoying extensive airplay and excellent reviews. He's had a duo with blues icon James Montgomery since 1994 and Montgomery & Marshall have released 2 CD's, headlined national shows and was nominated for a Boston Music Award. He's represented NE twice at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, placed songs in film, won a Blues Audience Readers Poll and was the vocalist for WB Mason Extra Innings on NESN 3 years running.
Now into his 37th year of full time music-making, Marshall has played over 7000 gigs and shows no signs of slowing down.
