Marshall Tucker.
The man who inspired the Marshall Tucker Band's moniker died on 20 January 2023 at age 99. The Southern rock group was rehearsing in its early days and found a keychain with Tucker's name on it in an old warehouse in Spartanburg, S.C. In an interesting twist, Tucker was also a musician. "Marshall was blind since birth but amazingly could play the heck out of the piano," the band noted on social media. "He always said his talent was simply God-given. He tuned pianos in South Carolina for decades. We are thankful for Mr. Marshall Tucker and the life he lived."
