Marion Dean releases new CD to rave reviews

May 14, 2011 - PRLog -- Marion Dean

Marion Dean was born on May 5, 1984 and grew up in Altoona, Pennsylvania.  He was exposed to music at a young age and under the guidance of his grandmother, a Broadway performer, Dean began singing and playing the piano.   His grandmother knew what she had before her -  a young man with superior tone and pitch.   Dean would perform on stage in shows such as “Beetlejuice”, “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” while infusing silly string as props.  He also had a talent as a songwriter and had developed a talent for composing plays, films and commercials.  His gift gained him the attention of Ivy League schools and state universities across the nation.  He accepted a scholarship to a university in Georgia where he won a NCAA division award for Theater Composition.  His accolades only heightened Dean’s desire to make his music his way.  This landed him in Hollywood to pursue the musical career he so longed for.

Marion Dean’s newest project is titled “Cast of Characters”.  One particular song titled “Bipolar Darts” is a song that reflects on issues and emotions related to this disorder.  “Sometimes I feel as if there is a greater power blindly throwing darts that control my moods taking me in and out of control”, states Marion.   It is in regards to one’s own struggle and growing from that inner turmoil for the better.  It is sung with beauty and grace with a wondrous melody and arrangement.   It is a pure delight to listen to.  It is very relatable and initiates empathy and understanding on the audiences part.  

Marion is a musician’s musician.  His keyboard talent is unmatched and you can experience this in all his songs.   From pop songs to light rock songs, Marion Dean has all the skill in the world to bring it to the audience like no other.  

“Cast of Characters” is available on most digital storefronts.  

“Bipolar Darts” was selected for the Downloading Nancy film trailer.  He is also doing shows locally and around the southeast Georgia region.  

He is currently working with A & R Select based in West Hollywood, Ca. for licensing, publishing, a record deal and/or placement opportunities.  For additional information, please contact them at:
