Some fans may recognized from his work with Prince’s New Power Generation, but increasingly folks are knowing him for his career as an R&B and jazz frontman. Marcus Anderson has been showcased at such major events as the Essence Music Festival and the famed Montreaux Jazz Festival, and his star continues to shine brighter.
Marcus has a new album out called Style Meets Substance, and we’re proud to present a new First Listen from that album. Marcus describes the upbeat “You Make My Day” in this way: “You Made My Day is an energetic song that grabs the listener from the 1st note. It’s whispers of the 90’s sound is recognizable but still is relevant of today’s modern music. It’s hard not to listen to it more than once. Your heartbeat will fall in sync once it hits your ears. The backstory to the song is someone called and just said some nice words and made me smile. From there I felt, ‘You Made My Day.’”
