A dynamic and engaging performer who commands the stage with power, intensity and subtle dynamic range, Glenn Marais is an artist at home in many different styles of music, but he lives in the houses of blues, folk and reggae, mashing them together in a beautiful stew. His original songs are lyrical and attuned to the travails of the disenfranchised of the world and spiritual revelations on the glory of the world and the human experience. His guitar work is poetic, powerful and burning with blues fire.
