Tina Marzola is a talented singer/songwriter who is not afraid to address issues. Her songs are honest and to the point, without being preachy. She claims she is a "people-watcher" and from this and her own personal life-experiences, she weaves heartfelt, intelligent lyrics and folk-based melodies into her own special style...think early Mary Chapin Carpenter with a dash of Joan Baez's world-weariness. Overall, SHE'S READY is an engaging effort brimming with Ms. Marzola's husky, melodic voice and personal, sometimes resonant, songs. She writes solid, down to earth lyrics about real situations. Most of them are love songs of one kind or another, but rather than telling us old stories again, she looks at the sometimes familiar situations in new ways capable of moving listeners. The album is like the ghost of your own emotions coming back to haunt you, making you feel it again but from a slight, heartening distance.
SHE'S READY contains strong country elements, but it's not strictly a country album or a Nashville country/pop hybrid. Rather, it's a distinctive singer-songwriter album.

Buy This!!
author: Kim
If you're only going to buy one new artist this year - then let this be the one. You really need to hear this. I can gurentee you'll enjoy it. It's professional and well put together. I find myself wanting to know what happened to the people involved. For instance I want to know how's Jenny doing now and what the secret was on "The Sweetest Day". These feel like real people - and, having listened to the CD I feel like I know them!

melancholic and smooth sound with some light country elements
author: Jack Whittington
I really like this CD. It's got some great lyrics that are easy to understand and subject matter that most can relate to. I would recommend this artist to anyone who enjoys music that looks a little deeper into the human condition than most. It tends to be on the melancholic side, so be prepared to listen closely. There are many golden nuggets here.

An accomplished songwriter with a gorgeous voice
author: Joy McKay
Marzola's album She's Ready can co-exist comfortably with Mary Chapin Carpenter and Lucinda Williams on CD changers and radio playlists. Marzola's lyrics are richly detailed with everyday observations that can't help but make you smile, such as "my calico cat and the old Beatle tune that Mama sang by our beds." Her warm, soulful voice embraces the listener, and she's too good a songwriter to lapse into structureless introspection.
I found myself really liking Tina and wanting to know her better as a result of her openness. In fact she reminds me, both in style and substance, of Beth Neilson Chapman.
