#marcus baylor

There are very few drummers who can play their instruments, as good as Marcus Baylor. Born in St. Louis, Baylor started drumming when he was only two years old. That means he has been around drums all his life, creating good music that has shaped the entertainment industry. He would watch his cousin play every Sunday morning, which drove him into liking music.

The world of music is in for an amazing treat with the upcoming debut from the soulful Jazz duet, The Baylor Project. Even as a new addition to today’s musical landscape, their history will absolutely blow you away in many aspects. They would come together more than fifteen years ago, their history from there would be cemented in more than one way; musically, and through matrimony. Beyond their personal love for each other, their musical union is fueled but the strength they both carried on their own in the industry, and that strength has grown tremendously since then. Jean had spent her former years as one-half of the powerful, groundbreaking duet Zhane, while Marcus was already a world-class drummer who had been playing all his life. His experiences of playing with many Jazz greats like Cassandra Wilson, George Benson, and Regina Carter only supplement the musical union. Together, they would become a magical and untouchable force in music. They’re range and versatility is undeniable, which will be the very thing that sets them apart from the crowd. Even while they join the ranks of a number of other married couples in music, their legacy will undoubtedly be lasting. 

HAPPY FATHER's DAY
