Eclectic. Intriguing. Delicious.

These are just some of the many adjectives that describe the sound of Teisha Marie. So, what about her style ? It's inviting. It's Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin meets Nancy Wilson and Debussy.

This 26-year-old England-born/Maryland-raised singer-songwriter, is a classically trained multi-instrumentalist, and poet. She's also one who's not afraid to take risks. After graduating from Spelman College (where she studied Music History and Theory) in Atlanta, Georgia, Teisha Marie then headed to Philadelphia. "At that particular time, Philadelphia was experiencing a rebirth of the 'Philly sound', and it was great to be fully immersed in it. I got a chance to meet the greats, like Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, Bunny Sigler, and many others."

Performing at D.C. area hotspots, such as Bar Nun, Mirrors Nightclub, and Takoma Station, has proved to be both enlightening and exhilarating. "I've always written poetry, and I've always loved to sing, whether in church choirs, choruses, or at home, but I never really sang completely by myself, in public, until now.

Fast-forward to the present:
Her debut, the seductive, "Moonlight in The Meadow" features Joseph Murray of SoilSound Productions.

Where does her songwriting inspiration come from?
"One word: life. Life isn't one-dimensional, so why should music be that way? Music is definitely a universal language, and I want people to listen, and understand exactly what it is I'm trying to say." Be on the lookout for her forthcoming EP, Addicted to Life.

Hi Teisha. 'Open' has a great feel to it. I appreciate the fact that you sing the song and put your emotion into it without a ton of vocal gymnastics. You allow the melody and the sound of your voice to be front and center. Keep up the great work!
