In "Mariel Larsen," her self-titled debut CD (CocoJazz Music), you hear the consummate artist, the singer who knows how to tell the story because she's lived it. Mariel Larsen, the album, is an intimate portrait of one woman's journey through love that is seasoned by the vicissitudes of life and the experience of a woman who knows who she is. The songs speak to the real and illusory facets of a love affair. Mariel extracts the pure essence of these timeless classics, layers it with subtlety and sets is down straight into your heart. Her ability to inhabit a lyric, to make it her own, is heard on every track and fleshed out by wonderfully inventive new arrangements and an all-star cast of world-class sideman. Produced by the legendary Elliot Scheiner, the exquisite recordings will be released in 2008.
I just thought I'd stop by and see what's cooking with you. Did you ever make Sonicbids return for money on that weird outfit in Bankok?
I canceled by account with them. I figured enough was enough.
In the meantime, I finished a video that I shot and edited all by myself. Most of it I shot on Bora Bora and the parts with me I shot alone at home. I hope you enjoy it.
Your voice is a gift and I am happy to hear and see that you are sharing it with the world. AND it doesn't hurt that you are so drop-dead beautiful, either. You can sing like an agel.
Mariel, What a beautiful voice....I simply love your rendition of "Taking A Chance On Love", as well as all the others on the site. THANK YOU for sharing your work with us. I hope you are able to come to the DC area and perform for us...soon! All the Best. Sonny
Your heart’s desire may it soar. And bring you love filled life and more. While happiness lines up to knock at your door. Understand that is what I am here for.
You are precious to me as the golden sands That echo in the distance in foreign lands Where treasures abound throughout the night By saying what you mean and getting it right.
The deepest most sought after treasure of all Is what you’ll find inside your heart to call Whenever you feel the joy of someone Who cares for you as the earth looks to the sun.
This is what I share with you to tell Because I found that by wishing you well The space between us becomes even less And time becomes not only now there is happiness
Think of forever when you think of me For that is where I will always be Cheering you on with all my might And seeing the love shine back its light
