Marc with Strings Attached
Website
From the heart of a century old barn on the blackland prarie just east of Austin, comes a sound that, while unmistakably Texan, might be heard on the plains of some distant land across the ocean. Gypsy rhythms and slide guitar, banjo and snake charmer blend beautifully as Marc Utter's new band grooves his tales of desprate lovers, destiny, guns and angels. Waltzing from rock to reggae to latin beat, the Blackland flavors it's music with Texeclectic spice.
Marc was a member of the legendary Sharecroppers, Austin's groundbreaking bluegrass rockers. Their '97 release, spirit of the sharecroppers, is a classic Americana recording. He continued to play in Nathan hamilton's band, recording and supporting his critically acclaimed debut solo album, Tuscola. He also formed the group Hundred Year Flood with fellow Sharecroppers, Bill and Jim Palmer and songbird Felicia Ford, whose 2000 self titled album was an international hit.
Marc's new CD, due out in 2007, was recorded in The Barn, Marc's studio/B&B with some of Austin's best musicians, inspired by the panoramic views of the tall prarie grass and distant clouds blown by the constant winds of the Blackland.
"Blackland features drummer Doug Marcis, guitar great Matt Giles, multi-instrumentalist David Sawtelle and some of Austin's best musicians....
