About Me


Many people have seen Marcia Ramirez performing as a back-up musician with artists such as Rodney Crowell and Patty Loveless. With the release of her third solo cd "Life Goes On", Marcia is back performing with her own band to rave reviews. Her first solo cd, "Compromise" was critically acclaimed and Robert K. Oermann called her "An exceptional talent with a totally cool sound. " Her second cd "The Barefoot Sessions" which came out in 2005 was a collection of "demos" that she released. It includes the original version of "You Belong In The Sun" which was cut by Jo Dee Messina and released on Jo Dee's Greatest Hits CD.
On her newest cd “Life Goes On”, Marcia Ramirez weaves a revealing tapestry of love, heartache and hope. From the true story of finding her birth parents in “Ticket To Tulsa” to the yearning of finding a way to keep a love alive in “Get It Right” she tells her stories in ways that make us feel she’s writing about all of us. “Almost Me Again” shows us that it’s okay to be just one after being a part of two for so long, and “Life Goes On” tells us that no matter what bad choices we have made in our lives, it’s never too late to find a better road in life. With an eclectic blend of musical influences, this cd allows Marcia to let each song become it’s own. If you have one of her first two cd’s, this is definitely a “must have”!!
