What if Joni Mitchell got together with Leonard Cohen for a writing session at the coffeehouse where Counting Crows and Neil Young were playing, Jan Krist was singing, Tori & Fionna were pouting, Over The Rhine & Aimee Mann opened, and Santana stopped by to play some smokin' guitar
...yeah, it sounds something like that.
Marianne is a touring singer-songwriter making music from the inside out & deeply immersed in living out her dreams. She travels the coffeehouse and house concert circuit where her laid-back & introspective style is a perfect soundtrack for the thoughtful listener. A lyricist with the heart of a poet, her writing style embraces allegory and lush imagery set to post modern art alt folk/pop/rock.
Pear In The Pink Thing (2007) is the sixth release from this artist who grows closer to “who she really wants to be” with each new project. In *Pear In The Pink Thing (*a metaphor for a mystery) Marianne explores her art in this free and eclectic expression of 10 self-penned songs plus acoustic renderings of two of Neil Young’s legendary songs. Come. Listen.
...art for your ears...

Once again Marianne has inspired artists to be proud of who they are...

In the liner notes I can relate to how she described how sensitive an artist is and how differently we may feel things. I think this record is a step forward as an artist and as always has brilliant, poetic, lyrics. I like the atmospheric sounds in some of the songs that add to the mystery of what is Pear and the Pink Thing? The fascinating and intriguing thing is that the metaphor can mean different things to relate to different people- the best of both worlds. Great lyrics, great production, simply a great album.
Oh, and I can't forget the Neil Young covers. I am usually not a fan of covers BUT Marianne made the songs her own. I think he would be proud she did them justice:)
