Marshall Charloff & Purple XPeRIeNCE is the most authentic and awe-inspiring celebration of Prince in the world. Hailing from Prince’s birthplace, Minneapolis, Minnesota and touring worldwide since 2011, the act was created by Dr. Fink and front-man Marshall Charloff. Purple XPeRIeNCE delivers the greatest production of Prince and the Revolution in the world to audiences of all generations and has entertained hundreds of thousands of fans. They have shared the stage with The Time, Cameo, Fetty Wap, Gin Blossoms, Atlanta Rhythm Section, and Cheap Trick.

Lead singer Marshall Charloff recreates Prince’s talent with appearance, vocal imitation, and multi-instrumental ability on guitar and piano. Marshall performs nationwide, sometimes fronting symphonies in major US and Canadian cities. He recently teamed up with jazzman Marcus Anderson (New Power Generation, 3rd Eye Girl sax player) in Raleigh, NC to perform with the North Carolina Symphony Orchestra.

Marshall recorded with Prince on the album 94 East (playing keyboards and bass guitar while Prince is on lead vocals). Pepe Willie discovered Marshall and was also responsible for getting Prince’s career started. In 2009, Marshall teamed up with Doctor Fink and Pepe Willie to perform at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame benefit concert.

Marshall Charloff is a producer and recording artist. He produced, wrote, and recorded for the Commodores and for Little Anthony (Little Anthony and the Imperials). He was part of the 1990s production team Marshmallow Fields, whose single charted on the Billboard Top 100 dance charts. Marshall is also an inductee in the Mid America Music Hall Of Fame as a member of the band Westside.
