Marc Broussard

Acclaimed singer, songwriter, and musician Marc Broussard is a unique performer who embodies the essence of American soul and has forged his own distinct musical style. The son of Louisiana Hall of Fame guitarist Ted Broussard of "The Boogie Kings," he nurtured his musical gifts at an early age in the vibrant Lafayette, Louisiana, music scene. After releasing a highly successful independent EP at age 20, Broussard made his major-label debut with Carencro. The album featured the breakout hit "Home" and propelled him into the international spotlight.

That album and the others that followed revealed Broussard as a Southern soul singer with a rarefied talent and an innate stylistic and emotional authenticity that has made him one of the most indelible artists of his generation. The Louisiana-born and raised artist has created a wide range of music in his career. Carencro laid the groundwork with unequaled style, illustrating his knack for modern soul music and setting the stage for his long and distinguished career. NPR cited, "His music radiates soulful Louisiana blues, but his songs blend those influences with raucous rock 'n' roll to create unique and infectious music." Washington Times noted, "Few modern voices are as powerful as Marc Broussard's soulful, Bayou-bred baritone."

Broussard released multiple albums with major labels over the last ten years before returning to his independent roots with several acclaimed original recordings and charitable cover albums via his S.O.S. Foundation (Save our Soul).  His philanthropic releases include Save our Soul, Save our Soul 11: Soul on a Mission, A Lullaby Collection, SOS 111 with accompanying children’s book, I Love You for You, and S.O.S.4: Blues for Your Soul, his collaboration with blues icon Joe Bonamassa which debuted at Number One on the Billboard Blues Albums Chart.

Marc Broussard's philanthropic efforts extend well over a decade, beginning with his self-released album Bootleg to Benefit the Victims of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and his efforts to organize the Momentary Setback Fund to provide financial assistance to those displaced by both Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. In 2015, to further his commitment to tying music to a mission, he established the S.O.S. Foundation as a conduit to raise money for worthy causes, including the United Way, Habitat for Humanity, the City of Refuge in Atlanta, Our Lady of the Lake Children's Hospital in Baton Rouge, LA, and the Miami-based organization, Guitars Over Guns.

Broussard's latest album, Time Is a Thief, is a heartfelt collection of ten original songs that showcase the celebrated Louisiana singer-songwriter's gritty, rootsy hooks and infectious grooves, all conveyed through his fervent vocals. The album marks his first release of original music in seven years and features the uplifting single “Give You The World.” The album has been hailed as "a new masterwork that transcends his previous body of work like the crown jewel does the ascent stones," by Blues Rock Review. Louisiana's The Advocate cited that the "album represents Broussard's soul- and rhythm-and-blues-informed style better than anything that preceded it." The album was produced by Grammy-winning guitarist/songwriter/producer Eric Krasno and Grammy-nominated producer/guitarist Jeremy Most.

In February 2026, Broussard will release a new studio album, S.O.S. V Songs of the '50s, via his Artist Tone Records.  The eleven-song set features intoxicating renditions of soul, blues, rock, and pop classics from the Fifties, two gems from the early Sixties, and a Broussard original. This vibrant collection offers a sublime showcase for Broussard's dynamic vocal prowess, revealing his craftsmanship and passion for an impressive range of enduring American music. S.O.S. V Songs of the '50s is Broussard's latest entry in his philanthropic album series benefiting the nonprofit organization, Love of People, based in Broussard's hometown of Lafayette, LA.
