Bio
VOICES FROM THE UNDERGROUND- MARISA's THIRD ALBUM debuts at #4 on EURO AMERICANA CHARTS With the dust of the Australian continent firmly in her veins, travelling the nation with her family as a child, and the world since, has given her a bagful of life experience that would be at home in a Kerouac novel. Marisa Yeaman's strength as a writer lies in the ability to connect the contradictions of the lives we lead and polarise them into songs which stay with the listener long after the notes fade. If songs are a journal of the times we live in, then Marisa has been writing her own truth for most of her life. Her sound is her own, worn off the edges of country twang, the soulfulness of the blues and the literal sensibility of modern day folk. Add a voice drenched in real experience, rich from a roar to a whisper, and aching with passion and you begin to understand why Yeaman never quite fits squarely into any musical box. After many years work as a live musician in Australia, Marisa's self released debut album 'Pure Motive' in 2005 climbed to number 19 on the critic based Euro Americana Chart. Marisa's follow up album 'Roadmap Heart' in 2008, climbed to number 12. Now after many more miles, many notes and many songs, her highly anticipated third full length album 'Voices from the Underground' is due for release March 2011. -------------------------------READ MORE AT WWW.MARISAYEAMAN.COM 'Her songs are beautiful and personal tales that reach right into the heart of the listener, like the Dylanesk 'Amsterdam Rain' that was written in the Netherlands. She has a magnificent voice that reminds of Shawn Colvin and Eliza Gilkyson'- Heaven Netherlands 2009 FOUR STARS "The songs themselves, like the novels of Tim Winton, seem to be hewn from a specific sense of place, one that is universal, but nonetheless rooted" - AMERICANA UK "She has that essential ability to present a concept or feeling in the most precise package possible, saying, to paraphrase an old quote, 'the mostest,with the leastest'. Now that's the hallmark of good songwriting." - FREIGHT TRAIN BOOGIE (4 STARS) -USA "An amazing folksinger, destined to grow, capable of instilling impressions so rare, speaking of solitude, lost lovers, the passing of time, with an aura of poetry" Roots Highway - ITALY WWW.MARISAYEAMAN.COM -
