After 10 critically praised albums and literally thousands of packed, raucous live performances including stops in Canada, Spain, Italy, Ireland and the Cambridge Folk Festival in England, Marcia Ball is an internationally acclaimed icon of Austin and New Orleans roots music. PEACE, LOVE & BBQ is Marcia’s first new studio release in five years and poised to follow in the footsteps of her previous Alligator releases (2001’s PRESUMED INNOCENT, 2003’s SO MANY RIVERS and 2005’s LIVE: DOWN THE ROAD), which have combined for almost 152,000 in sales worldwide. Marcia has collected print raves from USA TODAY, US NEWS & WORLD REPORT, ROLLING STONE, MOJO, DOWN BEAT, NO DEPRESSION, BILLBOARD, BLUES MATTERS (UK), BLUESNEWS(Germany), NORWEGIAN BLUES NEWS, BLUES NEWS ( Finland), BLOCK (Netherlands), SCHWEIZER FAMILIE, JAZZ’N’ MORE (Switzerland) and other press around the world. And of course Marcia’s never-ending tour dates will continue, picking up loads of press for the new release along the way. Shows in support of PEACE, LOVE & BBQ will begin with numerous club and festival appearances during the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and continue throughout the year at clubs, theatres and festivals worldwide. PEACE, LOVE & BBQ features some of the most stirring performances of Marcia’s career. Singing the praises of simple virtues in the funky title track, working the Crescent City strut of “Party Town” or coming to grips with the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in the deeply moving ballad “Where Do You Go?” Marcia galvanizes this record with soul-touching vocals and her always killer piano playing. Dr. John, Tracy Nelson, Wayne Toups and Terrance Simien guest. MUSICIANS: Marcia Ball | Don Bennett | Corey Keller | Mike Keller | Thad Scott | Ian Mclagan | Mac Rebennack | Stephen Bruton | Tracks
