San Francisco, meet Muscle Shoals. The vintage R&B and funk-tinged, blue-eyed soul sound of Marc & the Casuals draws deep cuts from the American songbook--as bandleader Marc Capelle puts it, “We try to have the sophistication that a good DJ would have in picking the songs.” With a core rhythm section of Capelle, Bart Davenport, Pete Straus, Todd Roper, and Tom Ayres, this new-style big band builds on the partnership of Capelle and Davenport, both raised on the classic regional soul sound and genre-busting party bands of Northern California. Expect a live-mixtape feel and a crowded dance floor. "The best damn band in San Francisco" -- SF Examiner.
