Marcy Lang: Not That Complicated (Mackie Boy)
Good sound, good voice, good vision. Marcy Lang can groove, she can kick back, and she can just let the sound of her voice do the talking. Indeed, shes got a lot going for her, and now a solid debut recording, one of the best local acoustic sets of the year, is here to show for it.

Regional Finalist - NEMO Boston Songwriting Contest - July 2005
Has shared the stage with many Nationally Touring acts such as Cheryl Wheeler and Antigone Rising.

CD REVIEWS:
“Not that Complicated” is a skillful mingling of Marcy Lang’s soulful lyrics and musical prowess. Strong and captivating, her voice is the perfect complement to her masterful acoustic guitar. “Glory in Me,” raw and impassioned, will leave you changed. The rock mix of “I Lied” is punctuated by jazzy cleverness and lyrical twists. The album juxtaposes longing with release, bitterness with love, sweetness with resolve. "Not that Complicated" taps into a profound universality, bringing the listener on an emotional ride that when over, isn’t truly over.
