Marshall Chapman was the first woman to front a rock and roll band, back when women weren"t yet picking up electric guitars. She rose from her conservative South Carolina upbringing to become a versatile, acclaimed, and playfully irreverent songwriter and pioneer performer. Recently, she added "successful author" to her list of credits. Marshall has written over 300 songs, released ten critically acclaimed albums, and shared the stage with everyone from John Prine and Jerry Lee Lewis to the Ramones. Now she has crafted a work-her first studio album in nine years-that rocks, grooves, and moves. Spanning a broad musical landscape, these songs resonate with hard-hitting intelligence, wisdom well-earned, Chapman"s signature wit, and a beat you can dance to. Add it all up and what you get is...Mellowicious!.
