Marcus Magellan
"Marcus Magellan is a local musician with a unique interpretation of jazz cultivated on his banjitar (six string banjo).
The banjitar 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 MAGELLAN STOMPERS" with Marc Magellan on guitar.

Jazz really kicked in during the 1920's, an era of speakeasies, flappers, gangsters and prohibition.
