Is it folk? Is it rock? Is it (G-d forbid) POP?.? Well it is Marissa Levy in her debut album. A fresh production of David Perlick Molinari's pop with Marissa's songs deeply rooted in old school folk creates a sound that is refreshingly unique.
Bio / Background
Marissa Levy started writing songs because she needed an outlet for her emotions and therapy was just too expensive. She was born and raised in Bethesda, Maryland, then transplanted to the big bad streets of New York City. Armed with a mind for music and a 1963 Favia classical guitar Marissa began to express herself through song in a thoughtful if slightly scattered manner.
Eventually, the Favia (may it rest in peace) broke and Marissa moved on to a new guitar and a more serious attitude about songwriting. She sought spiritual guidance from the folk and pop troubadours (Bob Dylan, Tom Paxton, Christine Lavin, and Billy Joel) that Marissa truly believed were kids singers as a tot, as well as modern chick rockers including Lisa Loeb, Dar Williams and Jill Sobule. Through this combination of influences she emerged with a sound that falls somewhere not so neatly in between.
Her songs range from a hilarious obsessive song about down and out actor Robert Downey Jr.

You can tell it's a "first" album.st4rguitar wrote on January 17, 2008
Marissa is difficult to describe - she's a mixture of poems, conversations, and guitar chords. Her voice is not very notable - it's not bad, by any means, it's just not one that rocks your heart to the core when you hear it. Her lyrics are very conversational - like she's telling you a story that just happens to be put to a strummed guitar. One thing I will say - when you listen to "Janey & Nancy," you will never forget that line: "...and she feels like she's in some kinda movie like lesbian encounters of the third kind." It's goofy, it's quirky, and it's folky, but it's not one of my favorites.
