Album Notes

Since graduating in musical theatre at Pepperdine University, Marie Barlow has toured nationally and internationally with a voice described as a "national treasure." As featured vocalist for the renowned New York Ragtime Orchestra, she performed before 50,000 at Japan's Osaka Dome in 2004 as part of an international tour in New York and abroad. Rave coast to coast reviews accompanied her on the National Tour of "Annie" directed by the original Broadway director and lyricist, Martin Charnin. Her vocal artistry, expertise in modern and classical styles, and graceful elegance puts her in demand as a guest soloist with churches, theatres and orchestras throughout the United States.

She combines her "astonishingly beautiful voice" with top- notch musicians from East and West coasts to present Dancer to the Drum, a collection of songs of introspection, faith, and power. Contemporary Christian, acoustic, Celtic, a cappella and pop weave together into a work of soul-inspiring artistry, musical integrity, and heart-stirring sincerity.

Do you remember a CD that you listen to over and over again at home, in your car, at work...that entertains you with its great musical taste and skill, and reminds you of the power of music to make your heart sing? Dancer to the Drum is such a recording that will be equally enjoyed by contemporary Christian fans and those who appreciate a sweet, sincere voice which offers that rare combination of gorgeous elegance, intimacy and power.
