Marcus founded one of the most successful function jazz bands in Scotland, the Ritz Trio. They have been the resident band on the Royal Yacht Britannia for the past eight years. They regularly play at other prestigious venues in Scotland including Edinburgh Castle, Skibo Castle and the Gleneagles Hotel. The trio often plays for weddings, celebrations and major corporate events. The band has an extensive repertoire of familiar Jazz standards such as "Fly me to the Moon", "Have you met Miss Jones" as well as a number of well-known Latin tunes such as "Sway" and "Besame Mucho". Each event is unique, so the tunes are especially selected to suit the atmosphere and surroundings. The line up of the Trio is double bass and guitar with either saxophone or cornet.
