Marc B

Marc B's music is made to mellow you out. His "Sublime-on-Marley" (Kevin Ferguson, District Weekly) style is an honest representation of the laid back environment of the California coast.
Marc was recently named as a nominee for Best Surf Artist at the upcoming Orange County Music Awards, standing alongside other nominees as The Offspring, Matt Costa, and The Vandals, all from OC.
Now working with Oniric Records, Marc B has played with the likes of The White Buffalo, Matt Costa, The Dirty Heads, and others in such beachside locales like The US Open of Surfing, The Boost Mobile Pro, and the ASR Tradeshow. "The Yellow Jelly E.P." has been handed out to the industry's top professionals (including the top 52 Surfers in the World) in their contest gift bags for three years in a row at each major surf contest in the ASP World Tour.
His single, "The River" was featured in Pro Surfer Kelly Slater's 9th World Title video on Wetsand.com for millions to see.
Growing up free-surfing all types of boards in Newport Beach, California, Marc B’s passion for the ocean runs deep. His music is a mix of that passion, combined with acoustic roots, tropical vibes, and a handful of honest, street-wise lyrics that people find stimulating.
"The Yellow Jelly E.P." is inspiring to all types of people. "He provides mellow, feel-good tunes that any So Cal college student can relate to and appreciate,” writes W. Walker in April 2007’s issue of DIG Magazine. But it's more than that. “The Yellow Jelly E.P.” has caused worldwide attention, from Tokyo to Sydney to Iraq...literally. People around the globe are adding Marc B to their iPods.
Music is in Marc’s blood. Explains Marc, “Music was passed to me by my grandfather and father...there were always guitars and things lying around.” Naturally, Marc B has been writing original songs since he was twelve years old.
When asked about his personal musical goals in an interview with PensEyeView.com, Marc replied, "I don’t need to be famous, I just want to make change to as many humans as possible."
