10/27/14 Marcia Ball Sat On The Couch

Marcia Ball is a word-class keyboard player with an incredible vocal talent and has performed at festivals and clubs around the globe. The singer/pianist has been blending Texas blues, Louisiana swamp ballads and New Orleans second-line rhythms into her distinctive roadhouse roots-rock for 30 years.

Now her 13th album, The Tattooed Lady & The Alligator Man has been released and Marcia is creating a stir all over again.

She and I sat and discussed her long career, her early influences and how they impacted her musical choices, her thoughts bend being with only two labels for her entire career and the new album.
