ABOUT BRADD MARQUIS:

Life man…life is my biggest influence. I use my experiences and observations to, hopefully, bring joy, love, healing and awareness to my listeners. – Bradd Marquis

Simply put, Bradd Marquis is a multi-talented entertainer (singer, actor, writer, and producer). Marquis utilizes his soulful tenor to captivate and inspire audiences from the very first note he belts out. Hailing from a time in music when soulful crooners like Marvin Gaye and Teddy Pendergrass monopolized the airwaves, this gifted vocalist, who is often compared to these legends, has honed in on their sounds and given life to today’s music. As a result, Bradd has graced sold out stages all over the country, performing his signature classic tribute dedicated to soul icon, Sam Cooke. Possessing a tone, passion, and purpose that separates him from the legion of today’s male vocalists, Bradd has piqued the interest of all whom witness the magic he brings to the stage.

Bradd Marquis, a veteran performer, has shared stages and toured with too many artists to name. Tank, Stokely of Mint Condition, Eric Roberson, Angie Stone, Faith Evans, India Arie, Tamia, and Grammy award winning producer, Gordon Chambers, just to name a few. In addition to his musical talent, Bradd Marquis was raised in a home that valued spirituality; which is prevalent in his charming, mannerable personality. Oozing with soul, this versatile young man brings the essence of music, pure and simple, to any stage he graces.

Enchanting audiences long before his 2007 album debut, the critically acclaimed Finding My Way, Marquis projects the sentiment and style of mid 90’s RNB unseen since the days of Jodeci, Babyface, and the iconic artists of Uptown and LaFace Records.
While his debut told the aftermath of Marquis’s broken engagement, its follow-up, Authentic, was an introspective view of a man struggling to find himself artistically and personally. Marquis’s billboard charting 3rd album, Thank You, was Marquis’s coming out party and salute to all those who had helped him through the rough patches.

Marquis’ latest EP, Love, is his first release since 2017s hit single Who Let You Go. The first single, No War, comes straight from the depths of Marquis’ soul! Written, produced, and performed by Marquis, this song captures the frustration and concerns plaguing the world today. No War is the beginning of Marquis embracing his full purpose; using music and the stage to speak to the conditions of today. Marquis is charged with uplifting, championing positive change, and projecting love like the soulful forefathers that preceded him.
