“Marcus Magellan is a local musician with a unique interpretation of folk cultivated on his guitar and banjitar.
The banjitar is a six string banjo that first appeared on early jazz recordings of King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band.
Not only does Marcus play New Orleans traditional jazz, he also cuts loose on other jazz styles like standards, jazz samba and jug band music.
Marcus’ instrumental ability and sense of chordal harmony is compelling, he plays his upbeat style with incredible technique and taste.

Marcus also performs with his duo “the Marcus Magellan Bonjo Jug Band" with Alan Goldberg on harmonica and percussion.
-James Gersing

Jazz really kicked in during the 1920's, an era of speakeasies, flappers, gangsters and prohibition.
Hello, my name is Marcus Magellan and for me it's all about music. I perform folk, jug band music, traditional jazz and gypsy swing.
I sing, play banjo/guitar, perform and write original songs.
​Influenced by the likes of Eddie Kelly, Glenn Miller, T-Bone Walker, Chet Baker, Ronnie Johnson, Al Jolson, Fats Waller and Django Reinhardt.​
