Event Details
Acclaimed singer/songwriter Marc Broussard is an artist with a unique gift of channeling the spirits of classic R&B, rock, and soul into contemporary terms. The son of Louisiana Hall of Fame guitarist Ted Broussard (The Boogie Kings), he nurtured his musical talents in the vibrant Lafayette, Louisiana, music scene. After releasing a highly successful independent EP at age 20, Broussard made his major-label debut with Carencro, which featured the breakout hit "Home" and propelled him into the international spotlight. The albums that followed established Broussard as a Southern soul singer with rarefied talent and an innate stylistic and emotional authenticity that has made him one of the most indelible artists of his generation. NPR cited, "His music radiates soulful Louisiana blues, but his songs blend those influences with raucous rock 'n' roll to create unique and infectious music." The Washington Times noted, "Few modern voices are as powerful as Marc Broussard's soulful, Bayou-bred baritone." Born in New Iberia, LA in 1952, Ted Broussard was the oldest son of Albert, an oil man by day and a guitar player by night. By high school, Ted was already far-outpacing his peers in the music scene. He studied music theory in college until a road gig came calling. He was a full time musician up until his first child was born. That’s when he traded smoky dance halls for sawdust as a home builder. Ted never lost his love of music and never lost a step as a player. When he discovered the singing talent of his youngest son, Marc, at 5 years old, he put him on stage the very next weekend. Marc and Ted have been playing music together ever since. Marc and Ted will hit the road to support an EP due out Spring 2027. The set will consist of some Marc Broussard favorites, covers, and some completely new songs written and arranged by Marc and Ted.
