As a long time songwriter,I wanted to share what I’m doing with those of you who’ve been communicators, sharing thoughts & ideas. My site http://www.soundclick.com/marcmeyers showcases some of my work & will include more as I continue to record. The listening & downloads are for free. It is my hope that you will stop by and explore my work & share your thoughts and ideas on the message board. My work is more like poetry in motion,in the folk tradition and perhaps "Folk Rock". My form is raw. I'm not into big production numbers.I will on occassion rely on electronic hoodoo, but only if, in some way, I hear it in the song. I always follow the song. Keep It real.
Born in the early 1950's,Plainfield,NJ, I Grew up affected by the music of Hank Williams, Woody Guthrie,Louis Armstrong,Elvis,Doo Wop,Jerry Lee Lewis,Little Richard,Sam Cooke. In my teens Bob Dylan,The Beatles,The Stones,Rock. Began writing in earnest at the age of 9. Poetry paints pictures in an impressionistic way in which I relate best. I Began teaching myself Guitar in 1970. Wrote my first songs in 1971. I believe them to be important in some way.
My favorite artists are Louis Armstrong, Bessie Smith, Robert Johnson, Hank Williams,Muddy Waters,Sam Cooke, Woody Guthrie,T-Bone Walker, Buddy Holly, Bob Dylan, Ray Charles,John Lennon,Leon Russell, Van Morrison, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen.
I look to share my work with those who are willing to experience the silence behind our passionate sounds. As artists,acknowledgement and commitment are what keep us going. Sharing our work with each other and with all those we can reach,continues to bring real art to the world.
