Tom Marshall (b. November 12, 1963) is a lyricist, keyboardist and singer/songwriter best known for his association with Trey Anastasio and the legendary rock band Phish. He was the primary external lyricist for Phish during their 21 year career (1983-2004), with songwriting credits for more than 95 originals - more than Mike Gordon (22), Jon Fishman (18), Page McConnell (11), and "Phish" in the generic (41) combined. Marshall attended Princeton Day School in New Jersey with Anastasio. The duo began writing songs together as early as the eighth grade (the reggae tune "Makisupa Policeman" is often regarded as the duo's first collaboration and the very first Phish original song). Other early collaborations include Bivouac Jaun, a project recorded by Marshall, Anastasio, and their friend Marc Daubert (who occasionally played percussion with Phish in 1984 and wrote the lyrics to their classic "The Curtain"). Many of the pieces recorded on Bivouac Jaun appeared on the very first Phish album. Marshall also was instrumental in influencing The Man Who Stepped Into Yesterday, a Phish concept album and song cycle about the mystical land of Gamehendge written by Anastasio and used as his senior thesis at Goddard College in 1987. Marshall, Anastasio, and friends would meet at "the rhombus," a giant piece of art located in a park in New Jersey, and embark on lengthy songwriting sessions. Many characters and locations mentioned in early Phish songs reference these songwriting sessions. In one instance, Marshall wrote the original lyrics to the Gamehendge song "McGrupp and the Watchful Hosemasters" and nailed them to Anastasio's front door. By 1985, Anastasio and Marshall had parted ways as Anastasio became more involved with Phish at the University of Vermont. Years later in 1989, Marshall apparently heard Phish's Junta album and thought to himself, "these guys really need lyrics." Marshall and Anastasio reunited and began a long songwriting partnership that resulted in over 100 songs over the next fifteen years. Anastasio's 2005 solo album Shine marks the first time since the pre-Junta years that he has not worked with Marshall. In addition to working closely with Anastasio, Marshall fronts his own band, Amfibian.

Bridging Heaven & Earth Show # 211 with Freebo and Freebo Music Videos

From bass player/band member with Bonnie Raitt for a decade to countless studio sessions and tours with artists ranging from John Mayall, CSN, Maria Muldaur, Neil Young, and Ringo Starr, to T.V. appearances on "Saturday Night Live," "Midnight Special," and "Muppets Tonight," as well as tuba performances with Dr. John and the legendary Spinal Tap, Freebo has achieved status and respect in a creative and highly competitive field. Not satisfied with simply resting on his laurels as a top sideman, however, Freebo has continued to push his creative envelope, and has evolved into an award winning singer/songwriter with three solo CDs to his credit; 1999's "The End Of The Beginning," 2002's "Dog People" (songs about the human/canine connection), and his latest, "Before The Separation", which was nominated in 5 categories in the JPF Awards, had 2 songs in the top 10 of the International Songwriting Competition, and won the prestigious South Florida Folk Festival Songwriting Competition. Showing his complete arrival and comfort as a singer/songwriter, The Philadelphia Inquirer said of his latest CD, "Freebo's stepping into a new role of singer/songwriter suits him well. 'Before the Separation' flows with a compassionate spirit rooted in '60s ideals, but packing a gently urgent relevancy. Freebo's songs span styles from folk, blues, & country to R&B, reggae, and rock'n'roll, and his live performances, mainly on acoustic guitar, take you on a musical and lyrical ride, creating an intimate unity with his audience?. Drawing on his years of experience in recording, touring, and the many lessons learned in the transition from sideman to frontman, from shadow artist to artist, Freebo now does workshops and seminars in songwriting, performance, and The Courage To Be An Artist. He is also beginning work on an internet TV show, as well as a book about choices. Freebo?s website is: http://www.Freebo.com Bridging?s website is: www.HeavenToEarth.com

Aaron Young - Dream

Live from Youngstown, OH. Rising from the fertile fields of Mississippi is Aaron Young, steeped in the long tradition of the Delta Blues, crooning soul music and guitar-picking in the moonlight. The twenty-something singer, multi-instrumentalist, producer and writer boasts' the kind of skills found among only a few in the machine-driven music of today like Alicia Keys and John Legend. For young Aaron, the instrument of his voice combines with his dexterity on the guitar, bass, keyboards, and drums to create a neo-soul/R & B gumbo that celebrates a deep love for his down-home roots. Born and raised in Bolton, Ms., west of Jackson, Ms., Aaron?s influences include old school soul greats like Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Donny Hathaway, Sly, and Curtis Mayfield. He took a small band on the road to northern California and opened up at various venues throughout the San Francisco, Oakland, and Berkley area for Gerald Levert, Brian McKnight, Bill Bellamy, and Too Short. The writer of over 200-songs to date, Aaron?s prolific song-writing regimen found another venue when he produced the music for the hit theatrical play, ?Glass Slipper Blues?. He also produced the music for up-and-coming local acts like the gospel group Brother Lee, an R & B/pop album for Laurel, and rap albums for Vell aka V-Smuve and Tennessee. Besides appearing throughout the San Francisco Bay area for crowd pleasing club dates, Aaron has recently returned from a hugely successful invitation-only Los Angeles showcase. Backed by a Grammy-Award winning quartet, AY?s live show takes you from the roof, to the floor, and back again. In addition to writing and production projects with legendary Bay producers, One Drop Scott and Tone Capone, Aaron has spent much of this year refining exciting new material for his upcoming CD. Aaron has said that out of the literally hundreds of songs that he has written, he is most proud of this collection which combines his unique vocal style with grooves so infectious for which there is no cure! With the launch of Aaron?s my space (myspace.com/aaronyounglive) site and the construction of his full-blown website, 2006 has been a good year as Aaron secures a foothold for the launch of his new CD in early 2007.
