If you enjoy the smooth
smoky croon of the jazz singers from the 40's and 50's, you'll dig
the MARC TOUSSAINT COMBO!
Native of Dallas, Texas, MARC TOUSSAINT purchased his first jazz
records at age ten (Mel Torme, Art Tatum & Cannonball Adderly).
Some thirty years later, Marc leads the premier vocal jazz combo
in North Texas. THE MARC TOUSSAINT COMBO is made up of seasoned
jazz musicians from all over the United States and has garnered
a well earned reputation for sophistication, excellence and dependability.
MARC TOUSSAINT performs regularly at The Mansion on Turtle Creek
and can be seen in the finest venues including The Chaparral Club,
Reatta, The Adolphus Hotel, The Tower Club, The Dallas Country Club,

MARC TOUSSAINT has performed with and for several legendary artists
including Stevie Wonder, Bobbi Humphrey and Mike Love, most recently

COMBO recently released it's fourth project, ONE FOR MY BABY. This
project along with MORE, OLD DEVIL MOON, and SWINGIN SINGIN CHRISTMAS
