Master percussionist, musical nomad, Marc Anderson has long been associated with Steve Tibbetts and his brand of elegant world fusion.
In addition to Marc’s own playing on berimbau, mbira, steel drums and African drums, Ruby features an all-star cast of global musicians including: Barb Cohen, vocals; Laura Mackenzie, bagpipes; Dean Magraw, guitar, Sowah Mensa, water drums; Peter Ostroushko, fiddles; and Enrique Toussaint, bass. The Enhanced CD also features a music video and an interactive game where you too can play with Marc’s wild collection of instruments at the touch of a mouse.
“A percussionist with a global perspective but a unique personal style, Anderson has created a record finally worthy of the oft-butchered term “world fusion.” Working with an unusually diverse group of musicians from world, folk, jazz and experimental backgrounds, Anderson’s dream-like creations are thoroughly unique.” – CD Roots
