For Marla Lewis, music is a way of life. She began singing as soon as she learned to talk! At the age of 3, she sang on a national radio talent show called, “Live Like a Millionaire”. She started piano lessons at the age of 5 and guitar a few years later.
As a child, Marla loved to sing songs in many languages from around the world. Her mother, also a singer, introduced her to jazz, Dixieland, and opera. Marla also fell in love with folk and pop music. She wrote her first song at the age of 12, entitled, “Hopeless Love.” It still makes her friends chuckle.
Today, when kids hear Marla's songs, they say:
"Can we hear that AGAIN??"
"I just have to say - WOW. I loved your new CD, I LOVE TO TALK TO PLANTS! What great production, songwriting, everything! Beautiful! Once again, you nailed all the different styles -- you hit the sweet spot all the way.
And if you want to sell anything to me, do it with a samba. That's one groove that always puts me in a great mood - like, where's the bar? I need a drink with an umbrella in it, and I wanna dance."
