Mr Soul & his Marshmallows

About Me

Started up in October 1982 with a gig in Mariehamn, Finland. 9 to 11 piece-band, always with a hornsection. Two back-up singers at start. Two albums in 1983 (LIVE the soulsessions) and 1984 (No covers), and a singel (Soul rider) in 1983. Toured 1982 - 1989, and started up again in the middle of the 90´s. Still playing. Almost with the same line-up as in 1982. Nowadays only a live group. At least up to now (Aug 2007). For contacts call Guran 0733-120130.
