About Marc Higgins Band
Formed in the early spring of 2005 in Spartanburg, South Carolina Marc Higgins Band is already becoming an upstate must hear and see with other regions soon to follow. Touring in support of their 2006 debut CD Change is Good; Marc Higgins Band is quickly making fans out of first time listeners. Their no gimmick attitude and entrancing live performances draw audiences closer with each song. As a seasoned songwriter, Marc Higgins shows much diversity using swampy guitar licks, raw harmonica melody and alluring lyrics in the new CD Change is Good. The songs capture a small town feel with a big city experience and universal emotion. Relating personal experiences into songwriting and sticking to the idea of only write what you know, Change is Good is a personal record of Marc Higgins well-crafted song writing. Followed by Marc Higgins is drummer Michelle Lee Scoggin. Michelle has played with Marc Higgins for over ten years in such bands as The Turnaround and The Edmonds. Michelle is a faithfully tight and steady drummer always playing to a mass appeal; this girl likes to be heard! Next up In the Marc Higgins Band is Bass player Keith Wilkins. No rookie himself, Keith has been playing bass in Upstate area bands for over twelve years. Playing with almost as many musicians as there are styles, Keith brings a sound to the MHB that is uniquely his own. With time well spent in bands like indie rock favorite The Giants and local roots and blues legend Dejablu, Keith's tasteful yet sometimes edgy style falls nowhere short of a perfect fit for this ensemble of four. This puzzle can only be completed with the haunting harmonies of Courtney Johnson. Courtneys sultry backing vocals compliment and complete MHBs southeast sound thus bringing depth and unison to this Spartanburg based band.
