After 10 critically acclaimed albums, national television and radio appearances, AAA and Americana radio chart positions and literally thousands of packed, raucous live performances around the world, Marcia Ball is one of the most popular and beloved artists in all American roots music. PEACE, LOVE & BBQ is Marcia's first new studio release in five years and poised to follow in the footsteps of her previous Alligator studio releases which have combined for over 113,000 scans. PEACE, LOVE & BBQ features some of the most stirring performances of Marcia's career. Singing the praises of simple virtues in the funky title track, working the Crescent City strut of "Party Town" or coming to grips with the devastation of Hurricane Katrina in the deeply moving ballad "Where Do You Go?" Marcia galvanizes this record with soul-touching vocals and her always killer piano playing. Dr John and Tracy Nelson guest.
