In Their Own Voice is a series of digital-only tracks with lyrics and performances by female artists and original compositions by composer/pianist Eugene Marlow. The first three tracks in this series—with vocalist/lyricist Ameilé Churbin—were released July 14, 2014.
Each song in the series expresses a strong and powerful message for women from their peers. The intention is for women to feel understood, empowered, and validated in their own relationships and feelings, and to come away from the music with a sense of belonging in a shared sisterhood.
Themes include: inner strength, self-worth, self-reflection, romance, break-ups, motherhood and maternal affection.
Throughout his musical career Marlow has written and collaborated with many musicians to create melodic instrumental music. The In Their Own Voice series represents the first time he is collaborating with lyrists and vocalists.
The challenge for both composer Marlow and each lyrist/vocalist is to bring their unique musical perspectives to the table and to work out how the words and the notes will come together, so that the theme of each track is an expression of feelings about relationships of various kinds from the women’s perspective, hence the title, In Their Own Voice.
The tracks in this Series represent an array of perspectives with songs in English, French and Spanish. The lyricists and vocalists who have collaborated with Eugene Marlow in this series include:
Amelié Chérubin, lyricist/vocalist (French)
Anne Mironchik, lyricist/vocalist (American)
Ellen Woloshin, lyricist (American)
Janet Lawson, lyricist (American)
Shira Lissek, vocalist (American)
Amy Cervini, lyricist/vocalist (Canadian)
Jenn Jade Ledesna, vocalist (American of Hispanic descent)
Carla Cook, Grammy-nominee vocalist (African-American)
Mila Milosevic, vocalist (South Eastern European)
Rachel Kara Perez, lyricist/vocalist (American of Puerto Rican descent)
Lauren Kinhan, vocalist (American)
