The Marshall Tucker Band continues to have a profound level of impact on successive generations of listeners represented by the group’s tried-and-true Southern sound over the decades. Plus, the band’s mighty music catalog, consisting of more than 20 studio albums and a score of live releases, has racked up multi-platinum album sales many times over. The Marshall Tucker Band came together as a young, hungry, and driven six-piece outfit in Spartanburg, South Carolina in 1972 – naming their band after a blind piano tuner after they found the name inscribed on a key to their original rehearsal space.
