Marsh-McClory

Who Am I?My name is Matt Marsh. I am 43 years old and have been writing songs since I was 15. After 4 years in the US Navy and 18 years working for corporate America I have decided to take "my show" on the road. I just recently started taking guitar lessons to accompany my songs (I did mess around with the blasted guitar for 15 years before taking a single lesson!). I am proof that there is no substitute for an education. : )What's In A Name?My mother's married name was Marsh when I was born. My real father's name was Roy McClory. He was the most decent person I have ever met. Since he left this earth I have tried to figure out a way to honor him. I have decided to use his name (finally!) as a token of my high esteem for this wonderful man. Thus the name "Marsh McClory".What's Up With The Logo? The logo is Pangaea. This is a theoretical map of what the world looked like millions of years ago. At one point the world was one. With technology it has become one again. This can be a good and bad thing at the same time depending on what we are doing with this technology. While I don't want a one-world government, I do want a one-world religion of peace and prosperity. Emphasis on the word "PEACE".What Am I Doing?Life is short. I figure I have another 30-40 years on this planet to make a difference. I have been blessed with a wonderful wife, 3 great kids, good friends, and a prosperous career in the car business. God and America have been very good to me. I feel it is time to give back. I hope my songs will help at least one person realize that we can all make a difference. That we all count for something.What Are My Plans?Well, like any other singer/songwriter it is my hope that someone in the music industry will notice me and perhaps think there is a place in the vast landscape of popular music for my "stuff". In the meantime, I will continue to write songs and perform them whenever and wherever possible.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
