 |
 Marguerite Cassell (not castle) has been writing music her whole life and just deciding to share. So what happens when this local songwriter, NYC media exec, wife and mom gets up the nerve to send a demo to an accredited producer (Dan Wise - These United States, Scissor Sisters)? That’s just part of her story unfolding – and she hopes to get fans to come along for the ride. "Girl With a Gun" was recently a grand prize winner on Jelli Radio/Indaba music. Here's what friends and fans say about Marguerite's music - "You really have an amazing style and I love your lyrics and piano work. I wish I could play piano like you" - Barbara Garriel, fellow songwriter. "DAMN DAMN DAMN!! I just spent almost 20 minutes writing you a note about Girl with A Gun, which I think is fantastic!", Mark Hussey, fellow songwriter. "You have similar sounds to Sara Bareilles, Paula Cole, and Sheryl Crow. Keep singing hun you have a LOVELY talent! Best of Luck to you" - Angi, Fan. "Please let me know when you release another song." - Susan, Fan. "I've overplayed Girl With a Gun- can you do another song- maybe with my name in it?" - Robin, Friend. “Marguerite Cassell has two great strengths as a songwriter. The first is that she’s tremendously musical. She draws from a great well of musical ideas that I find both familiar and novel. The second is that she is utterly faithful to her artistic vision. I feel like I’m hearing “music” how she hears it and not how she thinks people want to hear it. The results are beautifully asymmetrical songs that unfold with idiosyncronatic but surefooted logic. Cassell has an impressive catalog of songs that are poetic, catchy and sophisticated gems” – Walter Sargent, Director, ISS (Island Songwriter’s Showcase) – the largest songwriter association on Long Island. Marguerite is a member of BMI, Taxi, NSAI and ISS. She is currently in the studio with producer Chris Toland of Christoland Music and working on her cd. |
