Add Review/Comment

Atlantic Records welcomes a new addition to its storied roster, acclaimed singer/songwriter Marc Broussard. The Louisiana-based bayou soul troubadour makes his label debut with "Must Be the Water," his first collection of all-new songs since 2004's breakthrough "Carencro." The five-track EP -- available online and via indie retail--is highlighted by the fuel-injected title track, which recently served as the theme for Turner Broadcasting's on-air promotions of the 2008 NBA All-Star festivities. The "Must Be the Water" EP was recorded during Broussard's January 2008 appearance on the Rock Boat VIII, the annual five-day music festival at sea. Eager to release new material in advance of recording his next album, Broussard and his band opted to capture their live energy via the simplest possible means, so as the cruise traveled the Caribbean, Marc utilized a bare-bones studio set-up to record the EP's five tracks, all while leading a multi-artist concert line up which also included Toad The Wet Sprocket, Sons of William and more.

    I was pretty bummed when I heard the show was being moved to The Cannery Ballroom. I was looking forward to seeing them at The Mercy Lounge, but it ended up being a blast! They sounded super tight and of course the crowd went nuts for Steady as She Goes. Level was another highlight. The opening band Magic Wands were really good, a lot of people seemed to dig them. Overall a great night! Collapse
