The audience would see a professional energetic group immediately engaging them to participate. Vocals and harmonies are strong and prominent The band delivers a mix of original and cover material selected to fit the
occasion. A performance can have a country, blues or pop flavouring to suit needs.
The band size is also flexible to suit budget guidelines and event needs. The core group is a four piece and gives guitar based sound. It can be trimmed down to a duet or trio for more intimate settings and background music situations. Additional pieces can be added beyond the core for larger budget dance events and venues to present more musical colourings.

Marion is the heart and soul of the Marion Drexler Band. She is one of the very few singers on the local music scene that has full command and control to a powerful voice, bringing both sensitivity and boldness to a tonally excellent singing style. Her sound gives a tip of the hat to Grace Slick and Janis Joplin, but is definitely her own. Marion's in-your-face Pop/Rock style will drag you out of your seat and onto the dance floor. If you don't move, you're already dead. Yet her ballad renditions will send shivers down your spine. Marion's voice can croon so smoothly and yet deliver all the power a tune needs.
Marion is an accomplished rhythm guitar player and is well on her way to becoming a prolific songwriter. Also.... picky, but it keeps the drummer happy! She is now working on her 2nd album of inspiring original tunes.
We have lighting, the PA and would need power and space depending on how many pieces clients want in the band
