THE MOTHER TURTLE 2009 CD FUNDRAISER is UNDERWAY!
Mother Turtle is gearing up to go into the studio, with a pocket full of new songs and could use your help!

If you like Mother Turtle Music, this is a great way to show your support and help keep Mother Turtle Music Alive!

SPONSOR a SONG! By sponsoring a song you help give me/the song an opportunity to be heard, which is easier today than it has ever been, for anyone with recorded music. Ah yes, the key word, “recorded.” With the high cost of studio time, musicians, producers, engineers, CD manufacturing, graphic design, promotions etc., DIY (do it yourself) Artist's like myself, must create alternative ways to raise the funds needed to make a great recording. So, I am taking a GrassRoots approach, by coming to you, the fans, the friends, the family. Any and everyone who at any time showed me kindness, fed me, gave me a place to sleep, helped haul equipment, sold merchandise, hosted a house concert or anything else that showed your appreciation for the music. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your love and support. Truth be told, I couldn’t do it without you!

* ALL DONORS WILL BE LISTED IN THE CD LINER NOTES AND RECEIVE FREE STUFF! (see below).

Songs available for Sponsorship:
1. Always - Hopeful tune -"everything in time will change, Always, and on that I depend"
2. EarthStory - It's a new day! - "Everybody knows, the world is watching it unfold, how together we make dreams that seem impossible. The time has come to throw what's broken away. It's beautiful!"
3. Brother Jeffrey - Feel Good Song -"It's good to be in your company, my brother Jeffrey."
4. Mystic Garden - Jazzy dance groove - In a Mystic Garden, you'll find the finest artists, some who've long departed, are in a Mystic Garden. Where the party's getting started, with friends and the light hearted. Everybody's laughing. We're in a Mystic Garden."
5. Hear it On the Wind - "The bottom line is that you and I can open our eyes and realize the shape we're in, maybe if we were to try, you and I can stop what's happening."
6. Sweat - Put on your dancing shoes! - "Come on everybody and dance you know how. Move your body to the music and shake your cares out... the only thing to lose is just a little sweat, hot sweat!"

Please make a donation today! No Amount Is Too Small!

*If you are donating by credit card then write the song that you wish to sponsor in the notes. If by mail, include the name of the song in the memo section of your check.

MOTHER TURTLE

Mother Turtle (a.k.a Marsia Shuron Harris), performs solo and with band. Her brand of SoulRock is said to "inspire even the most cynical bastard to dance" (Northeast Performer Magazine). Songs are soulful, rooted in personal growth, social consciousness, love and a larger vision for the world as a whole. Blending soul, rock, acoustic and jazz, Mother Turtle attracts a variety of music fans and people of all ages dance to the infectious rhythms, led by Mothers' distinctive voice. In the summer of 2004, Marsia formed Mother Turtle, where she is songwriter and front woman for the band. Lead guitarist Atticus Robbins, brings a unique mix of Latin, reggae and rock to the group, while percussionist Busta B. an accomplished African drummer from the Bamidele Dance and Drum Troupe, keeps the grooves upbeat and danceable. On bass is the exceptional, Peter Kim, who replaced original Mother T. bassist Adam Bergeron in 2005. Each member of Mother Turtle brings something very different to the group, resulting in music that moves not only your hips but hopefully your heart as well.

In the early ‘90’s Marsia Shuron Harris debuted with a seven-piece band at the Hatch Shell on the Boston Esplanade. She was welcomed into Boston’s active acoustic music scene and her music played regularly on college radio and other local stations. A self-taught musician, Marsia honed her skills while performing on the streets of Harvard Square and at Boston area clubs and coffeehouses. In 1994 Marsia joined forces with fellow singer/songwriter Adrienne and formed the duo AYE, an original world, folk and rock group (myspace.com/theduoaye). The two garnered rave reviews and released their well-received CD, “Sweet Life” before disbanding in 2002. Marsia has performed solo and with AYE at numerous venues throughout the Northeast. Places such as the Bitter End, Sidewalk Café, Iron Horse Music Hall, Middle East Café, Club Passim and others. She has also showcased at NACA and performed at many colleges and festivals. Her vocals can be heard on a variety of recording projects including an interactive theatre exhibit produced by Peace River Films and she has also co-written songs for a national curriculum program on AIDS awareness, entitled “Staying out of the Risky Zone.” Recently, Marsia’s voice is featured on a Grammy listed score by composer Ruth Mendelson, which can be heard as part of a nationally touring exhibit presently on display at the New England Aquarium. She is a two-time Lilith Fair finalist, whose songs range from soulful ballads to groove laden rock-n-roll. An engaging performer, Boston Women’s Voice says, “on stage, she’s magic.” Whether with the band, or armed only with her voice and guitar, Mother Turtle is a talent worth checking out.

hey there, MOTHER TURTLE!

well, it's been a long and winding road, and an even longer time coming, but my debut CD, 'I Remember', is FINALLY HERE!!! YAY!!!!!

to celebrate, American HeartBeat Records(tm) has arranged a FREE DOWNLOAD of "Now Is The Time" in exchange for a valid email address. "Now Is The Time" is a brand new, upbeat song I wrote: we're living in turbulent times. suddenly it's okay to be greedy and heartless? no way! a song of hope for our future, a new vision of America and the world.

we've got a bunch of exciting things planned to kick this whole thing off, and we need to get a better picture of who our friends are, so the FREE DOWNLOAD form will ask you a few questions, like, what's your country and nearest major city. it all takes maybe 15 seconds.

anyhoo, the FREE DOWNLOAD, and the FUN, begins at www.JAETCHISON.com

I look forward to getting to know you a little better, and I thank you SO VERY MUCH for your friendship and support!

please tell your friends about JAETCHISON.com, and ask them to sign up for the email list, too! FUN things are coming up!!



peace from Atlanta, Georgia, USA,


J.A. Etchison
