"Music, like life, is very precious and should be enjoyed to it's fullest". My name is Marie C and was raised in San Antonio, Texas most of my life.. As early as I can remember, I have always had a passion for music...Started writing and composing at a young age and self taught myself to play the guitar...Now my guitar playing still has a lot to be desired..But don't hold that against me.LOL
My son convinced me to join Soundclicks, so I could get other people, in the music business, to listen to a few songs that I have written (other than friends or family) and give me their professional opinion. I classify my music Genre as: Country, Country Rock and Soft Rock.
The music you will be listening to is a simple made home demo...Just a keyboard, guitar and my voice. My songs my not be radio quality, but I believe my music will leave a lasting impression on who ever listens to it...Hope you enjoy what you hear...

Why this name?
I chose to just keep it simple so the Marie C..is fine for me...My CD will be named "Me, Myself & I" and hopefully I will accomplish that in the near future
Do you play live?
I have played live and received great reviews, won a couple of talent shows, but I don't play live often, ...My songwriting is much better than my performance skills.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
This is my first experience promoting my songs on the internet, But it seems like the perfect medium to get my songs to the masses. What I like is that your not judged on your appearance or looks, so much more attention is placed on your piece of works.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I had a recording contract but unfortuntly I was diagnosed with breast cancer an had a hard time getting to the recording studio. Had to put my music on hold until I was well enough to do so...I believe I am too old for public performances, but I can still continue my dream of being a songwriter..
Band History:
I've been writing songs from an early age..and caught some breaks here and there when I was younger, but put everything on hold when I had cancer. I have been offered free studio time, if they could record one of my songs, but I was young, scared and didn't know anyone in the music business..My friends took a copy of my songs to several recording studio's, and they liked it enough to called me..Being a military wife, we moved alot, never stayed in place alot. i
Your influences?
I grew up in a era where there were so many influences that I took a litte bit all of the incredible talent that surrounded me, from Patsy, Tammy, Conway, Willie, Motown gang..Eagles, Aerosmith..and Soul to Hip Hop and Reggie..etc..
Favorite spot?
Canyon Lake, Texas (The Lone Star State)
Equipment used:
2 6 string Ovations, 1 12 String Taylor, 1 12 String Ovation, Yamaha Keyboard. Several Mikes, harmonicas
Anything else...?
I am very grateful to anyone that listens my music...I try to keep my songs simple. I believe in my heart, that if a well known artist(female or male) took the opportunity to listen to a few of my songs, would really love the simplicity of it and could easily be a #1 hit.. The songs were recorded in a home mini recording studio, so what you will hear is just "Me, Myself and I" accompanied by a keyboard or guitar and my voice.
