| Marcia Ball |
Marcia Ball and The Voice of the Wetlands Allstars perform a double bill at the Northshore Performing Arts Center, 18125 92nd Ave. NE, Bothell, on Saturday, February 19 at 7:30 pm.
Pianist/vocalist/songwriter Marcia Ball brings the spirit of Louisiana and Texas roadhouses to every concert she plays and every song she records. Her music is mixed with equal parts simmering soul fervor and two-fisted piano pounding. Between her deeply emotive vocals and her incisive, often poignant songwriting, Ball is in a class by herself. Her groove-laden New Orleans RandB and driving Gulf Coast blues have made her a one-of-a-kind favorite of music fans all over the world.

| Tab Benoit |
The Voice of the Wetlands Allstars features Tab Benoit, Cyril Neville, Anders Osborne, Johnny Sansone, Waylon Thibodeaux, and Big Chief Monk Boudreaux - each a renowned musician in his own right.
Together they promise an eclectic mix of soulful blues, New Orleans funk, Cajun Zydeco, and gritty rock-n-roll. The VOW Allstars were founded in 2005 when these prominent Louisiana musicians got together to produce a benefit CD for the Voice of the Wetlands non-profit organization. The loss of South Louisiana's wetlands is a serious environmental problem, contributing to the loss of the musicians' unique culture, heritage and livelihood - and was made even worse by the destruction from Hurricane Katrina.
Ticket prices for this Special Event are Adult $40, Senior $35, and $25 for Youth under age 17. Tickets are available online or by calling the Ticket Line at 425-984-2471.
