PIANIST/VOCALIST/SONGWRITER MARCIA BALL RECEIVES GRAMMY© AWARD NOMINATION!
Alligator Records is proud to announce that Marcia Ball received a Grammy© Award nomination for her 2005 release, LIVE! DOWN THE ROAD, in the Best Traditional Blues Album category.
The Washington Post calls the CD “the best showcase yet for Ball’s ability to rattle the ivories.” The New York Press describes Marcia as “a triple threat: an incisive writer who plays the meanest barrelhouse piano this side of Professor Longhair, then completes the package with a voice brewed in swamp water, sweet and potent. Onstage she’s one of the rare performers who seem to be having as much fun as we are.”
The 48th Annual Grammy© Awards Ceremony will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on February 8, 2006.
