The collective experience of rural roads and international flight form the story that is Marshall McLean. And with a keen sense of observation and a penchant for wondering while wandering, Marshall fashions these experiences into songs about life in all of its grandeur and normalcy. Marshall lives near Spokane, WA with his wife Nina and son Charlie.
He is the winner of the Gibson Guitar New Musician Award for 2006 presented at Hatchfest in Bozeman, Mt. and was later featured on Gibson's website. He is currently working on a project due out this year that will showcase his award status with Gibson.
Marshall ~ Hello. Thank you for adding me. I was on Dave Hannon's site the other day, and had to laugh when I saw a comment from you on there! I have seen Dave Hannon live, and my husband Jim has seen you! We've been planning to see both of you again, but together this time. :) Jim got your album, Road to Antioch, when he saw you. We love it! Congratulations on all the success you have already met in music career! Take care. :)
P.S. Will new dates be posted soon? Hoping to see some Spokane, Tacoma, Seattle and (maybe?) Bellingham dates. Jim and I will be frequenting all of those locations.
Mr McLean, haven't seen you in Dillon for a couple years now. Dont be a stranger, I've got residents coming in my room all the time asking who I'm listening to and I tell them it's Marshall and he comes here every once in awhile...any future plans of coming back? We got a lot of people who love your stuff.
Hey, How's the life? Hope your summer has been good. I'm good, the salmon season was very strong, worked more hours than I ever have, glad to be done. Spent a couple of weeks in the wilderness eating ramen noodles with the bears, that was fun. I am in Haines, Alaska right now waiting for the ferry to go to Sitka, where McKenzie and I are going to meet a guy and help him sail his sailboat down to Seattle. We hitch hiked 1000 miles in two days to get here and we are weary but excited. I don't have a guitar with me and I'm dieing to play some music, absence makes the heart grow fonder i guess. I'm reading a biography of Robert Zimmerman. I know you know who that is. Your profile picture looks like him back in the day. I miss you man, I hope our paths cross soon. David
Just wanted to stop by to let you know we recently posted the final mixes for "The Nickajack EP (Part One)". We'd love it if you stopped in for a listen and let us know what you think.
hey, it's great to hear you. You have a beautiful sound that's captivating. I played at Portello last Saturday. It's a loud croud, but you'll get a few behind the bar who will lock you in. I'm sure you'll get more than a few. Hopefully I can get a date night w/ the wife tomorrow and be a part of the few.
