Marc Broussard in Ann Arbor

The first time my ears ever absorbed the soulful sounds of Marc Broussard was in June 2003 at the Better Than Everfine Festival at Tower City Amphitheater in Cleveland, Ohio. Two years later, in June 2005, I made the drive from my home in Tucson to see him headline a show at the House of Blues in San Diego, California, with Tristan Prettyman opening for him that night. So, after two out-of-state journeys to see the 29-year-old rocker from Carencro, Louisiana, it was a treat to see him take the stage Friday night in my backyard in Ann Arbor, Michigan, as part of the the South University Art Fair Main Stage Lineup. Yep, he's still rocking.
