PHOTO: RICK MOORE | Guitarist, singer and songwriter Marc Stone will be leading his all-star band this Friday night at D.B.A. featuring one of the unsung heroes of New Orleans music along with the three trombonists who make up the front line of Bonerama.
Guitarist Eric Struthers has a deep resume in New Orleans. He played with Dr. John and the Neville Brothers. His recording credits include four albums with the Nevilles in the 1990s including the stellar Live on Planet Earth and more recently he appeared on Michael McDonald’s Christmas album.
It’s going to be interesting to see what the two guitarists can conjure up. Stone promises, “stretching into some heavy psychedelic zones.” The Bonerama Horns—Mark Mullins, Craig Klein, and Greg Hicks—are no slackers when it comes to getting down either.
The rest of the band features Keiko Komaki on keys, Phil Morin on sax, you may know him from Soul Project, Thomas McDonald on bass, he plays with Big Chief Monk Boudreaux and numerous other ensembles, and Terry Scott, Jr. on drums.
Stone also reports he has a new album coming out called Live in Europe and a new single, featuring Alvin Youngblood Hart, Papa Mali, Mike Dillon, and Marilyn Barbarin. You can preview and/or buy the single here.
