Stand Or Fall
Marcus Malone
|
So sings Marcus Malone on the opening track of Stand Or Fall, his sixth album. This pertinent observation sets the scene for all that follows as he takes the listener on a journey through the spectrum of the blues, from up-tempo rockers to slower, bluesy ballads.
Hailing from Detroit, Michigan bluesman Malone started his musical career in the world of heavy metal, with his popular Marcus album. Now based in the UK, he is currently working the European blues circuit, touring Belgium, France, Germany and the Netherlands.
