Marshall Lawrenceâs fifth release, âFeeling Fine,â is a return to high-energy rock and blues reminiscent of the late '70s and '80s British and American rock scenes. Marshallâs fiery approach to guitar playing and catchy songwriting come together for 10 original, exciting, hook-laden tracks. Marshall has the
distinction of being a Maple Blues Award and Canadian Independent Music Award nominee. In reviews of his previous CDs, Marshall has been described as a "neo-Delta visionary" (Living Blues) and has been compared to Woody Guthrie (Living Blues) and to Taj Mahal, Roy Bookbinder and Corey Harris (Rootstime).
Marshall has previously written and released âWhereâs the Partyâ (2003), âThe Morning Afterâ (2008), âBlues Interventionâ (2010), and âHouse Callâ (2013). He has charted in the top 10 on Roots Music Reportâs Roots Blues Top 50 Blues (International) â radio play, in the top 10 on Canadaâs Roots Music Report â radio play, and in the top 10 on Roots Music Report - Roots Blues Top 50 Blues - internet radio play.
"I did the rock thing, I did the punk thing, I did the funk thing, I did the blues -- and for me this album is a progression to coming back home," Marshall says. "I use all of these musical influences in my approach to playing, whether Iâm playing acoustic or electric. For me itâs not about playing like someone else because theyâre popular, itâs about self-expression and playing what I feel. Itâs about making sure I do whatever I can to help the listener have a good time and feel fine.
