Memphis, TN's the Mother Station sprung to life in late 1990. From their early beginnings, it was always clear that the Station's voyage of self-discovery would include a heavy dose of 1960s blues and soul aesthetic that paid homage to their hometown roots. Led in tandem by vocal powerhouse Susan Marshall and the extraordinary Gwin Spencer on guitar and vocals, the band is rounded out by drummer Rick Shelton, bass player Michael Jaques, and keyboard player Paul Brown -- all of whom had been kicking around the Memphis music scene for years. Each had cut their teeth at one time or another in a revolving door of soul tribute bands and, at various times, as back up players for the Staples Singers and many others.
