The Grand Marquis

Grand Marquis: American roots styles blend down by the riverside of Kansas City blues and Memphis soul to form a second line party stretching to the Big Easy. A mighty chorus of horns wail over a groove-heavy rhythm section, while big, soulful vocals highlight well-crafted original songs.

Currently touring with their new soul 7" single "I Can't Put You Down," released on Teenage Heart Records honoring the legacy of KC soul singer Tony Ashley.

Named by The Blues Foundation as International Blues Challenge Finalists in both live performance and for self-released album "Blues & Trouble," Grand Marquis continues to impress and build upon a solid 21-year history as a blues and soul powerhouse. Numerous "best of" awards in Kansas City, 9 full-length studio recordings, including The Sun Session from famed Sun Studio in Memphis, national tours such as the Camel Roaring 2000's tour, countless blues festivals and over 2500 live performances, including appearing live with famed musicians as diverse as Marilyn Maye, Myra Taylor, and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.
