Bob Marshall Band performing in Evart this weekend

With over 200 years of combined experience on stage, the award-winning country western band will be playing this Saturday, July 2, from 7 p.m. – 9 p.m. at the old Railway Depot.


The performance is a part of the sesquicentennial anniversary events in celebration of July Fourth
weekend. The Evart concert was cancelled in 2020 due to an illness within the band.


“This is the fourth or fifth year we’ve played there and we’ve always been treated like family,” Bob
Marshall said. “They bend over backwards to make us feel welcome and it’s a nice venue.”


The five-person band has been performing country music with a rock and roll twist since 2014. This
includes concert venues, festivals, and corporate entertainment across Michigan and even southern
states like Kentucky and Texas.


Bob and his band have won many awards, including the “Will Rogers Award,” “Male Vocalist of the
Year,” “Texas CMA Award,” and “Best Country Album of the Year.” While there music may be
considered unorthodox, it blends quite a few fan-favorite genres.


“I like to refer to it as cowboy rock and roll,” Marshall said. “We really have an eclectic mix of music.
We’re gonna have something for everyone there.


The concert is slated to take stage at the loading deck of the Depot.
