The Marshall Tucker Band with Opener Moonalice

In the early fall of 1973 The Marshall Tucker Band was still a young and
hungry group out to prove themselves every time they hit the stage.
Their debut album had already spawned numerous hits. The band’s
recent release of their Live! From Englishtown album is a time capsule
from that period. “We were a bunch of young guys who didn’t know any
boundaries” says founding member and longtime lead singer Doug Gray.
As it turned out, the collective talents of The Marshall Tucker Band took
them very far indeed.
Still led today by founding member and lead singer Doug Gray, they
represent a time and place in music that will never be duplicated. Gray is
quick to credit the band's current dynamic members with carrying on the
timeless essence of The Marshall Tucker Band sound. Current members
include the highly respected drummer B.B. Borden, a former member of
both Mother's Finest and The Outlaws, multi-instrumentalist Marcus
Henderson of Macon, Georgia, plays flute, saxophone and keyboards in
addition to lead and background vocals, Pat Elwood on bass guitar, and
Rick Willis on lead guitar and vocals, both of Spartanburg SC, are
disciples of the Caldwell Brothers. Acclaimed lead guitarist and vocalist
Chris Hicks recently rejoined the band after a two-year absence.
Together they present a powerful stage presence as they continue to tour
the country and continue to be powerful force in the world of music.
