Marcia's website has her bio " Born in Orange, Texas, in 1949...grew up in the small town of Vinton, Louisiana, right across the border from Texas...1970 set out for San Francisco...Her car broke down in Austin, Texas, and while waiting for repairs, she fell in love with the city and decided to stay..."

Cambridge? I always thought she was from Texas, but got hooked on that Louisiana sound as a kid.

Marcia and her band turn in three hour sets with just one break. Zinnington, you need to be hip before you can judge others that know the meaning of the word. She has the best band and the finest performer I have seen. I would recommend "Presumed Innocent" and "Peace, Love, and BBQ" as starter albums. I think you will see what I mean. Cheers....

I really enjoy Marcia but I'd expect someone from Cambridge to have better sound equipment.

About 20 years or so ago, Marcia Ball did a PSA for the "Don't Mess With Texas" campaign, and I had an immediate crush on her. See how her leg bounces back and forth? When she's on a regular piano, she taps the leg of the piano with her foot as she plays. She was wearing a short red dress in the PSA and was quite a hottie back then (not that she looks bad now).

Marcia Ball reminds me of what it would have been like if my Junior High School Music Teacher tried to get hip. LOL.
