Biography

Early years

Marshall was raised in Syracuse, New York. By the age of 16, Marshall began performing and touring in swing, jazz and country bands, touring and performing with his group The Delta Rays.

Marshall has recorded 6 albums in addition to an unreleased covers album titled Light of Day. It includes selections from Elvis Costello, Rufus Wainright, Neil Diamond and John Lennon. His most recent CD, called Point of View, was released in 2009. Mixed by Lars Goransson, who is known for his work with artists such as The Cardigans, this album featured an even balance of acoustic and electric guitar.

New project With Cotton Mather frontman

In 2012, Marshall announced to his audience at a concert in Knoxville, Tennessee, that he "recently concluded two years worth of recording sessions produced by Robert Harrison at his custom-built recording studio." Harrison is a producer and songwriter best known as the frontman of indie rock groups Cotton Mather and Future Clouds and Radar.

Style

Marshall's music has been discussed by a critic from CD Universe, after the release of Point of View, claiming that, "Though the longtime local singer describes this album as "alt-pop," there's very little alt and plenty of pop here, starting with the first track, "Desperately."[1]
