Newport Beach, CA (Marc Ford MySpace Website) - Ever tried to leave your old world behind and blast off into the stratosphere of a new one? You know that the old world was rich, rewarding and filled with terrible attractions. The new one, while filled great potential and promise, isn't always a smooth ride along the way. Guitarist Marc Ford of "The Black Crowes" has just blasted off to his new world ready to take on new music, new musicians, a new life and best of all, a healthy new world to perform in. While Marc's life as guitarist for the Crowes, meant he was in his words, "part of the most phenomenal rock and roll band ever," he has left The Black Crowes to continue on with his hard fought healthy lifestyle of sobriety. Concerned that his health, and all the difficult work he has done to gain his longest period of sobriety ever was in jeopardy while touring, he announced his departure from the band just after Labor Day. Marc says he now has the chance to record his own album he has never had time for, despite one company's patiently waiting for him to do so. His guitar playing musical brilliance will explore new techniques in an atmosphere of creative freshness and freedom. Marc's career as a producer is also unfolding. Ford has recently produced albums for emerging artists "The Pawn Shop Kings" of Newport Beach, CA, and Ryan Bingham from West Texas. Both albums are due out soon. So watch out for some "better than ever" incredible sounds from the compelling guitar of Marc Ford!
