LISA MARSHALL: Simple
5-28-09: Settled, somewhat, in Austin. Loving the locals! Getting ready for a tour in June starting with New Orleans! BORN IN VIRGINIA, Lisa Marshall has been playing and singing with bands since she was 19 years old. Her introduction to music came from her parents who owned a huge collection of albums of just about any genre that existed during the early 70's. Some of her favorite memories are the hot muggy summer days of Virginia Beach. Her family lived on the Chesepeake Bay. She and her sister would jump in the warm Bay waters to try and cool off but only lasted long enough to keep the thick clumps of jellyfish from closing in. "Dad would usually be flipping one of his favorites, burgers, in a frying pan with music blasting out of the stereo. Our carpet had sand in it so it was liking walking on a giant bean bag, which of course we had too. Our little neighborhood seemed very hippie to me, and the music in our house ranged from 60's psycedelic to jam bands to Mom's favorite, Motown. But one of my repeat songs was "Cowgirl in the Sand" Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young - the 4 Way Street album. What a great time to be discovering music!" After her parents split disco and funk were coming out strong. Her Mother would often send Lisa into the record store to fetch a Rick James or Wild Cherry 45 record. "She would have us play whatever 45 we recently purchased over and over. However, to this day my Mother still thinks Elvis was the sexiest, greatest performer/ vocalist of all time" At 21 she moved to California, where she co-founded Peculiar Boogie (Rebekah Coltman-lead guitar/co-founder, Susan Joyner- keys, sax, guitar/co-founder, John Knecht-drums,percussion,djembe, Clinton Calton-bass), which she was the lead voclist for 10 years, Opening for artists such as Koko Taylor, Robben Ford, and Big Brother and the Holding Company, with whom she also performed. "Singing with them was exhilarating and intimidating and the same time. When we opened for them for the 30 yr. anniversary of their performance at Monterey Park, Becky got to play guitar and I sang back-up on "I Need a Man". Until '05, Marshall has been playing bass and singing lead in her Seattle-based band. Lisa just released her first solo CD "Simple". The first review came in from Seattle sound Magazine... "Lisa Marshall's first solo album carries a heavy debt to the Motown era; backup singers croon to Marshall's soaring vocals, while tambourines and bass riffs stroke and jingle each piece to perfection. Like late Tina Turner, the swinging melody dips and soars with lyrics about defeat and triumph, and defeat again. It's the contrast of it all that gets you. Like the groove that underpins lines like "What makes the heart break so slow?" Or Marshall's surprising compositions; her voice belts and soars through the building lyrics then dips to a restrained contralto for climatic lines, like "I am so, so, so,...lost," which gets more deliciously guttural with each "so." Hints of reverb in the production space add a subtle, creepy effect to the gospel tunes. It could almost be too crafted, but with Marshall's spellbinding voice pulling at the tempo, the album feels so organic that you can't imagine it any other way." - Rachel Dovey Standout Tracks; "Swamp Song", "Bring Yourself Back" QUOTES: She "belts 'em out like Janis Joplin and can gyrate like master contortionist Joe Cocker,"writes Monterey journalist Beth Peerless. ...that pretty little pixie (Lisa) was a musician through and through. She knew her chops and busted ass to get there. Then she opened up and sang. Good lord. She barely comes up to my ribcage but she has got the voice of a serious belter. And refreshing. What really makes it is that when she sings a song..you cant imagine it being sung any other way. - Chopperman; Adventure Rider, WA., 04 PEACE, LOVE & :-) TO ALL!!!! 7-03-07 NEWS!! Peculiar Boogie's song "Honeysuckle Me" is on the TOP 10 song list for Boston Girl Guide..check it out www.bostongirlguide.com Peculiar Boogie's music can still be heard and purchased on www.cdbaby.com and search band name "Peculiar Boogie" and singles can be downloaded at itunes.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjohjXKjioM

Journal Log (Sunday July 12, 2009)

Round 1 – Night 1
(96.7 iROCK Summer Showdown Battle of the Bands 2009)

“The WeakEND”

It was a great night for all of those who showed up to support the local music scene and iRock.

It has been so long since being out or being a part of an event that it was shocking for me to see how so many people could really care less nowadays. It is pretty apparent this will NOT be our last show played in the Bloomington-Normal area come July 25th. I mean, why should we take the time to care about a scene that doesn’t care about itself, a scene that use to pride it-self on many things, that of which it is.

Maybe there is a time for all bands to ask, is it time to move on from those who it thought once cared?

I’m greatly disappointed and upset right now in not only many of whom I believe to be close friends, but in those who lead me to believe they actually cared about local music.

Times change and it is clear they have done so as I’m the one speaking out now.

If by the way it takes only one person to say something I guess that person will be me as it really has been this way my entire life now that the picture draws clearer. So if this entry turns a head or makes a dime so be it, you can have it, I’ve moved on a long time ago, and evidently so have you.

So maybe we’ll see you out at the shows, I will count on it. Support your scene to The End.

Peace.
Jason – Land of Lincoln

hey there....
I'll be at the Kerrville Folk FEst for the next 20 days.  It's about two hours west of Austin.  It's a 38 year old music festival...mainly of people just singing around campfires and some stages.  It's the best thing anyone could do if you want to meet other musicians.  It's the best place to network and be friend some really wonderful songwriters.  I run the kids program (kidzville)  you should come out and find me.
