Marianne Beard

I'm just too excited to share this news with you: I know someone famous.

And not like my friend's cousin's hairdresser's brother once sat in a booth behind someone famous at a fancy restaurant... I for real know someone famous! Which means that by reading this blog, you're only two degrees of separation from famousness. So go brag to your friends... because you're two little degrees from the one, the only, the talented singer-songwriter Marianne Beard!

Who? you ask... Only the greatest new up-and-coming musician whose songs are fresh like warm bread and smooth like soft butter. Marianne is a phenomenal musician with a clear voice and a pure soul, and I know her from way-back-when she serenaded the stairwells at Corlew Hall. She was great even then, but now? Now's she's professionally great!

Just for Today, Marianne's debut album, is available now! If you like music, check out some clips from her new cd here, and when you get hooked, you can go here to buy it. Then come back to this blog and tell me how much you liked it. Our favorite is her song Broken, so make sure that you check that clip out...

Her webpage is up and running -- so stop by and get to know her. That way you can say you're one degree from famousness... and that you, too, knew her back when.

Very cool! I wish I could make such a bold claim!

Why does her name ring a bell like I've seen it somewhere recently? Hey, was she mentioned in People Magazine...??

Nicole- No People magazine yet, so far as I know, but give her a couple of years and they'll be knocking down her door!

Dissenter- She was Molly's roomate. Do you remember the time we were watching movies at your apartment and I got a call from someone who thought they had broken their foot?? That was her. She played all the time at the Cyber Cafe, too.
