MARK REBILLET DOESN'T NEED TO PRACTICE TO MAKE YOU MOVE THAT ASS
“I’VE BEEN SMOKING SINCE I WAS 15 OR 16 AND HAVE DONE SO PRETTY STEADILY FOR MOST OF THE TIME THAT I’VE BEEN ALIVE SINCE. AT THE VERY LEAST, I’LL SMOKE WEEKLY, AND AT THE VERY MOST, MANY TIMES DAILY.”
For over the past year, Marc Rebillet has been a beacon of light in a darkened pandemic world. Armed only with a beautifully eccentric persona and a small table of electronic music equipment, Marc’s live music streams and socially distanced drive-in shows helped captivate hearts, ears and genitals at a time when most people were in their greatest need of human connection. And now, he’s returning to the main stage.
With sold out live shows booked throughout the United States this fall and an upcoming European tour kicking off in February 2022, Rebillet is pumped to deliver eargasms to a city near you.
