Marc B

Sponsors: Atwater Clothing, Oniric Records
Marc B makes music for the industry he grew up with: Surf. His fresh beats and ocean-inspired melodies blend with free-flow lyrics as crisp as lettuce. Think Jack Johnson, but with a DJ and a lot more sand in his bed. His “Sublime-on-Marley” style (Kevin Ferguson, District Weekly) is why so many surfers are drawn to his music.
If you’re a surfer, and you haven’t yet heard his honest-to-life inspired tunes from his debut album, “The Yellow Jelly E.P.” belting out of your beachside venue, keep your ears open, because now that you’ve read this, you most definitely will be noticing Marc B.
Marc was recently named as a nominee for Best Surf Artist for the 2009 Orange County Music Awards, standing alongside other nominees as The Offspring, Matt Costa, The Vandals, Thrice, Avenged Sevenfold, and Mickey Avalon, all from OC.
