About Me |
|
| Folk/pop songstress Marie Moreshead writes brilliant songs that ooze positivity and playfulness because she can’t help but allow her quirky and sparkling personality to shine through in her music. The tone and mood appeals to listeners of all ages, and she is quickly establishing herself as one of the up-and-coming artists in Portland’s music community. By the way she stands alone on stage with her acoustic guitar, she harkens to classic acts like Joni Mitchell, and Carly Simon, but she is anything but old fashioned. For example, she largely developed her fanbase before playing a single show by posting videos on Youtube, and by updating her Myspace page. The result is a following of internet-savvy fans who were moved by her songwriting, and who were more than willing to come out in droves when Marie began performing live. Those fans were soon to enjoy Marie’s music in some of the most well-known music venues in Maine, as her touring schedule began to fill almost instantly. In 2007, after performing at the Maine Cultural Music Festival in Livermore, she was inundated with requests for a CD. She set her mind on recording and releasing The Distraction EP, and signed with Roadside Manna Records to help bring the project to fruition. Meanwhile, the demand for her live performances continued to grow exponentially. She opened for regionally and nationally touring acts including Rustic Overtones, Mark Erelli and Rachel Griffin. She was booked to perform at one of Maine’s largest music festivals, Harvest Fest. The local press began to take notice, and she was soon performing and being interviewed live on TV and radio. There is no limit on where Marie goes from here.
