Marius is a world-class bassist whose sound is the heartbeat of modern New Orleans funk. Recently nominated for a 2026 Grammy Award for his work on the explosive Live at Vaughan's album with Corey Henry & The Treme Funktet, Marius has cemented his status as a premier force in the "Best Regional Roots Music Album" category.
