Marsha Ambrosius |
Picture this ....At the SWV/ Faith Evans Concert @ Indigo 02 and the announcer mentions 'Be sure not to miss the incredible talent of Marsha Ambrosius live @ Dingwalls' I look to my left @ MR CEO the friend i went to the concert with then i look to the right, My boy Jerome we both nod heads and he says 'Simone make the call' In our language that translates to 'WE ARE GOING'
So fast forward .....I get the call from Jerome, Meet me @ Camden for 7.30pm and this is where the magic starts- Now taking into consideration i had been up since 6am and helped one of my bestie deliver her beautiful son 'Kstar' into the world, on the other side of London...I was a little worse for wear, still overwhelmed from witnessing the birth of my godson and TIRED due to the Christmas celebrations. Anyway I'm digressing again.....
OK Now in Dingwalls and they had some opening acts now I can only remember a lady who goes by the name of Byowah (Sorry if spelt wrong) she is an new emerging talent from London who has a Teedra Moses/ Indie Aerie vibe, playing on her acoustic guitar whilst singing was lovely. Byowah captivated the audience and was a lovely start to the show.
NOW comes to the stage looking slim and trim compared to the last mental image i had of her, Marsha Ambrosius , wearing lace tights, Black shorts and a red satin shirt with black blazer- Hair in a curly Afro side part kinda style with her eyes radiating all that she is.....A Musical blessing
I must say my friend Tony Touch head of Avant Garde dance company, His partner surprised him as he is possibly Marsha's biggest friend so the saddo that he is decided to audio recording the whole show on his Iphone. I am now awaiting a dance piece to the said recording as he did for Maxwell's woman's worth a few years ago- which is my fave song!!! I know he will bring the music alive with sensual movements. Touch if u need a dance partner you know where i be! (I'M SERIOUS TOO)
I was blown away by her performance of 'Butterflies' which she penned for the one and only Michael Jackson to name a few that this talent has worked with. As the show progressed, Marsha took us on a journey and all I could envisage was what i was planning on doing *Covers eyes* But its true her music can only be described as 'Orgasmic'. her vocal range and ability is phenomenal, Close your eyes and You can feel the velvet textures of her pitch, the falling rose petals dropping on your navel in her rhythm, The warm pouring of chocolate on your back with her sultry tempo, the smell of love as she caresses your inner soul with her Lyrics. NOW SNAP OUT OF IT! Yeah that feeling
The intimate setting of Dingwalls allowed the audience to connect with Marsha as she played us snippets of her highly anticipated album 'Late Nights, Early Mornings' which is due for release February 2011. This includes a cover of a Teena Marie song which is sensational to say the least.
All I can say is that it was more like a listening party rather than a concert- My only criticism was i would have appreciated if she did a few more songs of her mix tape which I love.
Overall it was a nice intimate performance and this female simply takes my breath away, I look forward to hearing her new album and if you want to hear the recording of her show please click link below:

This video is amazing, Marsha looks so epic, The eyelashes and big hair add drama but the presence of the song is felt- The video takes a twist which i really didnt expect- It evoked a few feelings in my heart as Marshas music takes you on a journey. The ending messaging is significant in more ways than one!
POWERFUL VIDEO- ON that note i have 2 wipe away my tears and just be thankful!
That's all from me, for now
Happy New Year to you all, May you be blessed with the path to do as you will!
