“The drummer Gino Vallecillo is the newest in the band and he’s from down here from a little town called Dehlco, Louisiana, the keys and sax player Jason Pafait is from down here as well, he’s from a town called Houma, Louisiana and the other two are transplants to New Orleans. The bass player Kevin Scott is from Alabama and the guitar player is from kind of all over. He was born in L.A. and grew up in Philadelphia and St. Louis and his father was Aerosmith’s guitar-tech for years so, he’s got touring in his blood,” laughed “Bayou Soul” artistMarc Broussardas he discussed his band, his latest album, “A Lullaby Collection SOS lll” and his new children’s book, “I Love You For You” along with the current tour and his upcoming April 1 show at The South Orange Performing Arts Center.
Growing up and still residing in Lafayette Parish, Louisiana, Broussard was destined to become a product of his environment but it’s not the environment one may think. Obviously with the presence of Cajun and Zydeco music as well as various forms of jazz and blues emanating from New Orleans, the delta and beyond, you might get the impression that he has a certain sound or style to his creativity and he most certainly does; however, here again, it’s not what you think.
"I still live in South Louisiana; Lafayette Parish; my father is a rhythm and blues as well as a jazz guitar player so, he had a major influence on my upbringing as a musician. He was sort of in charge of the stereo system at home for quite a long time; it was definitely inescapable to be influenced by this region,” he acknowledged. “There is no doubt that I was influenced by the Cajun and Zydeco culture and I’ll always be a part of me but my father's musical tastes gravitated more towards artists like Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, James Taylor and Otis Redding and to this day, those are still some of my biggest influences."
Being influenced by his father’s taste in music has served him well. Marc’s voice and musical style, a blend of rock ‘n’ roll, soul, R & B and blues with overtones of Cajun, Zydeco and Jazz have allowed him to broaden his horizons and enhance his fan base; of course, being a “Humanitarian” and a charitable minded man doesn’t hurt either.
Broussard’s SOS (“Save Our Soul”) series of charitable albums of which “A Lullaby Collection SOS lll” is the latest installment, have all been very well received. From the initial “SOS: Save Our Soul,” a collection of R & B cover material to 2016’s “SOS ll: Soul on a Mission” he has donated 50 percent of the profits to charity and with this recent release he will be donating a portion of the profits from both it and the book to Our Lady of the Lake Children’s Hospital in Baton Rouge, LA. So; how does he identify which charity and choose the material?
"We try and identify organizations on the ground doing the most crucial work that we can find, the most comprehensive approaches on the ground and then support them hopefully in perpetuity with my albums and whatever else we can throw at them,” he explained. “The project usually is about 95 percent cover material and we try and write a song that will fit the motif. Picking the songs is really by committee; I put together a playlist of 30 songs, some of the guys in the band will put together a playlist with a bunch of songs, my manager will weigh in as well with his own playlist and then we cross-reference the lists and see if there is anything that is on all of the lists and those are usually automatic. Then we start whittling away from there, we have discussions about it and we try to make sure that the playlist is as recognizable as possible as well as something that we're going to enjoy playing."
Picking music by “Committee” as he said seems like it could be the easy part but how does one decide to write a children’s book? Broussard, the father of four says that what was once “Up in the air,” suddenly came together rather quickly.
"I've got a dear friend who is an illustrator and I've worked with her husband who is a film producer on a few different productions and we've become friendly over the years and every time that we are together we'd both admit that it was probably a good idea for us to put together a project at some point and it wasn't until the last time that we were hanging that I realized it was time for another SOS installment. So, I said, hey, let's do a children’s book, I'll find a children’s charity, I'll do an album of lullabies and we'll do a whole child-themed release and she was all about it. I actually wrote the story on the plane ride home from that trip; I wrote the entire book. I got super inspired on the plane and just knocked it out. I sent her a copy and she loved it; she started working on some drawings for me and the rest is history."
The SOPAC show is just one of many stops on this current tour and as he alluded to earlier, he is on the road with a full band. A recent press release stated, “Although geared to younger ears, Broussard's soulful signature sound and sweeping orchestration offer a universal appeal for listeners of all ages;” so, with that in mind; what can we expect to encounter at a Broussard show?
"I've got a five-piece band playing with me; I’ve got bass, drums, guitar, keys and sax,” he stated enthusiastically. “My keys is also my sax; I’ve got Jason Parfait playing both instruments which is a site to behold to be quite honest with you; it’s pretty amazing to watch him play a sax solo while also keeping the keyboard parts going. He is a very talented man; the whole band really is, Bobby Junior on guitar is easily the best guitar player that I’ve ever had in the band. So, yeah, we’re gonna rock out. We play about a 90-minute show generally and it’s a mix of my songs mixed in with some medleys of some of the covers that I’ve done over the years. The show is really a rhythm and blues show. So, you’ll hear everything from me to Al Green, P-Funk, The Isley Brothers, James Brown, Stevie Wonder; we sprinkle it all in there to try and put on as much fun of a show that we can; so, make sure you bring your dancin’ shoes if you’re comin’.”
Broussard also has some things coming in the latter part of 2022 and is very excited about them as well.
“I’m actually releasing singles exclusively through my own app in the App Store so, if you just type in my name you’ll see my app. We’re releasing some new original stuff exclusively through the app but I just solidified a deal to make another SOS album and this time it’s going to be a blues album and Joe Bonamassa is going to produce for me; so, that ought to be a really good time. That will be cut in June and hopefully we’ll be able to get that out by the end of this year.”
