Compared to Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Sarah McLachlin, been called "the millenium Carole King" by an incredibly smart reviewer;-)...still think I just sound like little ol' me!
Ok, so if you want to read the last "official" one, it’s on my website at: www.marcigeller.com/bio.htm Unofficially, I decided to stream my consciousness and see what comes out. I’ve had some career moments that either impress people or evoke a weird snotty response. How can I best describe it? Hummmm, well an example that comes to mind when I called a fellow singer/songwriter to tell her that I was going to be on TV and the first thing she said (with disdain) was "How’d you get that gig?" Needless to say, I never called her again.
I was supposed to FINALLY get a big record deal about 2 years ago from a company that shall at the moment will remain nameless. Long story short, my key man at the label who was also the head of A&R was "let go do to restructuring" and there I was, barreling into a dark sad place convinced I was "done" with the music biz....again.
Here I am 2 years later. I survived. Winter still kicks me in the butt a bit, but as long as spring keeps coming, I should be ok. I tour all over the country. Most times it’s amazing, sometime it’s lonely and rainy and I wonder what the heck I’m doing and how I escaped "normal" life.
My friends said I have to mention some "show-off stuff" so in nut shell, I have some soundtrack placements:Room Raiders: MTV, Ready for the Weekend Movie: USA Network
Soapography: Soap Network, Driven: Jessica Simpson (VH1), Dweezil & Lisa (Food Network), Knock First (ABC Family), Biography: Christina Onassis (A&E)...oh yeah, and my 2 minutes of "fame"...if you were wondering what TV show I was on that illicited the weird reaction from the aforementioned singer, it was Live! with Regis (STOP LAUGHING, I never claimed to be cool;-).
So that’s it for now. If I think of something else worthwhile, I’ll be sure to write:-) If you’re reading this, well all I can say is thanks and I hope it provides some....I don’t know-honesty? If you have any comments, I’m all ears!

P.S.-If you’re interested, I have some merchandise available here: Marci Geller Merch!
P.P.S-Here are my MySpace rules for my page: Unless I know you or of you, I don’t ever go out looking for friends and send random invites. The rare exception is if I hear another artist that I really like on a friends page, then I’ll send an invite. I just decided when I joined that i wanted to build a network of "true" friends and listeners and not be like the labels and randomly invite anyone who probably doesn’t care much about me or my music. Also, I generally as a rule will not approve comments that are adverts. I try to always check out a page before adding anyone, and if I leave a comment, it’s about them-not me. I just would like the same treatment reciprocated:-) Trying to keep it real! LOL!!!
If you don’t mind, I’d love it if you signed up for my mailing list here:
Just stopped by to listen to your songs and I'm leaving your page with tears in my eyes..."We Carry On" just touched me like never before. I love and miss you deeply!
Beautiful, heartfelt honest songs. Marci is the whole package and what music is all about. Amazing singer/songwriter who is true to herself and her music.
Hi Marci, thanks for the add. Funny thought I had met you at Nerfa a few years back, but perhaps I had just heard your name about. Wish you all the best! Jennifer
Hey Marci!!! Thank you so much!!!! Great Stuff too!!! That Cathi is something else a? Love her. I hope we all get a chance to meet and maybe work together. It could happen. Have an awesome day and keep being the art that you are being!
Hello Marci, thanks a lot for the add and leaving a comment! :)
Unfortunately, I hadn't a chance to attend the only Blackmore's Night concert in Ukraine so far. But you left the band by that time (2004). Anyway, besides the official live releases, I've got many records of their shows made by fans, covering all the years of band existence and helping to reproduce the magic of live performance. There is also a video of Blackmore's Night concert in Sofia, Bulgaria in 1999. You can call it a 'virtual attendance' if you wish :)
Your music is beatiful! So nice to see you performing! I really like the video blog thing.
Dear Marci, I wish you a neverending inspiration and a lot of creativity!!!
Thank you Marci. You have a lovely page, too. Your music is very relaxing and beautiful. Feel free to use my quote or anything you'd like from my page. Hope you're enjoying your weekend. Peace and Love, Bradley D

Dropped by and listened to "My Last Mistake". Always so nice to listen to your beautiful voice. I have many times played your cd here in Denmark to my friends. :-) Big hugs to you!
Marci, it's an honor to be in your circle of friends. Your music is awesome, compositions, voice, interpretation--it's all very, very good. And I appreciate your personality and sense of humor in your bio. I'm convinced that you WILL get that elusive Major Label deal!! Best wishes from your new German-American friend.....Frank
