Bex Marshall ….One girl, One guitar….One off.
Live she plays all this solo, she lets rip like no ones watching, the gal likes to have fun onstage it’s in her blood.

‘THERE IS NO ONE LIKE HER IN THE UK’ – BLUES MATTERS.
An explosion of blue hot acoustic slide roots / rock, poker twisted with a whippin’ of Bluegrass, a versatile guitarist with a unique earthy melting pot of a voice.

Bex Marshall's outstanding virtuoso guitar playing is a mixture of exposed blues and ragtime frails augmented by her stunning whiskey soaked vocals and diverse, but always poignant writing.

A Devonshire lass now residing in London, the product of two completely different family’s, one blue blooded landed gentry, the other Irish Romany’s she had a great live musical background growing up, at every family gathering her uncles would play for the family, she was given a 1973 Gibson Hummingbird when she was 11, classical guitar playing was her first passion, she got hooked on instrumentals and classical guitar standards which stretched her fingers and gave her a great basis for her own musical creations to develop, flamenco, ragtime, country chicken pickin', rock and on to blues, roots and slide/dobro which she plays on an Ozark 3515E Electro Acoustic Biscuit resonator, wood body with a lipstick pickup and a cutaway through a Fender Frontman 25R (with reverb).

She always had a passion for traveling, its in her blood and she trainer as croupier at 18 and began her travels around the world which inspired her song writing, from dealing illegal poker games in Amsterdam to hitch hiking the coast of Australia alone on cattle trains, always with a guitar on her back. She is an adventuress, a writer, seasoned guitar player and passionate vocalist, her musical influences are varied and many although comparisons have ranged from JJ Cale to Hendrix and Derek Trucks, and her music has been described as….“Bonnie Raitt and Led Zep jamming in an everglade moonshine joint”.

Bex Marshall did three tours of the US in 12 months 08/09 and started promotion for Kitchen Table which BBC Bob Harris has continued to play over a 5 month period - …."Bex has an incredible voice, Bex is fantastic on stage, Bex is an amazing guitar player" – BBC Radio 2 Bob Harris

She performed a LIVE SESSION with Bob in July 09 and now Paul Jones is currently playing Kitchen Table and has recorded Bex Live Session - "about the track STAND UP …I really rather like that… a real statement of intent’ – BBC Radio 2 Paul Jones

Her song writing is highly praised in her latest album reviews.

“Touches of genius” “Staggering” ‘Intelligent and interesting’, ‘Timeless’, ‘…She has mastered the art of making new material sound like its been found in long forgotten vaults” - Net Rhythms

The new album ‘Kitchen Table’ is a mix of roots, rock rags entwined with bluegrass frails and home down blues slide and has received stunning reviews to date - sounds like a breakthrough album’– Rock n Reel (R2)

Marshall's album is of such class and maturity, without an apparent weakness or filler’ – Blues Matters

Live, she plays all this solo, she lets rip like no ones watching, the gal likes to have fun onstage it’s in her blood. THEN there’s her voice….Tina Turner, Janis Joplin, Joan Armatrading, Beth Hart, Bonnie Raitt…all have been mentioned in comparisons but Bex has her own style.

Powerful, yet subtle, husky yet clear cut and totally unforgettable. “No Gimmicks”, ‘Raw’, ‘Gritty’ and ‘Absolute stand out’,
‘She has all those essential vocal frailties that make the difference between soul and soulful’, Folk and Roots

Bex Marshall’s voice draws up the ghosts of old blues women’s heartaches’, Outlaw Magazine

In March Bex starts touring Australia and Tasmania for ten weeks.
