Marshall Law Band, Redfield Clipper, Melting Elk

When your eyes have been closed for hours and you finally turn on the light, for a moment everything is a kaleidoscopic of explosive colors. Then, just as suddenly, you have new clarity. This is what happens the first time you hear the music of Seattle’s Marshall Law Band, a group that blends the power of hip-hop and the playfulness of funk.

 The six-piece group, which formed in the Emerald City in 2016, provides electricity to all your senses, igniting your body and soul. Their intention is to inspire and they do so through both classical instrumentation and a near-reckless abandon on stage. Fronted by emcee and lyricist Marshall Hugh, the Marshall Law Band recently released their debut EP, Nostos, A Hero’s Journey which is a concept record with the Joseph Campbell’s hero’s journey archetype at its core.
