Anna Marie

         

          In 1992, starting with an old classical guitar, Anna Marie decided that she wanted to be an entertainer. Her enthusiasm and drive to succeed as a songwriter propelled her to join the Nashville Songwriters Association International (NSAI), the Newport Songwriters Association (NSA) and the California Country Music Association (CCMA), which she joined as a performer/artist.

          She has worked very hard at performing her craft to become the accomplished entertainer she is today. Over the past several years, she has received many awards from the California Country Music Association. Anna Marie has the distinction of being awarded the titles of 1999 and 2000 CCMA Youth Vocalist, Entertainer, Instrumentalist and Songwriter of the Year with special honors for Song of the Year for "Found Someone" and "Starting Over". She also received awards from the North American Country Music Association International as Instrumentalist, Vocalist and Songwriter of the Year, along with Song of the Year for "Found Someone." The awards were presented to her at the Louise Mandrell Theater in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

          Anna Marie continues to write new material and perform at venues in Southern California and in Tennessee. When in Nashville, she performed at the Bluebird Café and the Broken Spoke.  Local performances have included the Crazy Horse in Irvine CA, the Orange County and Los Angeles County Fairs, Paul Kulak's Woodshed in North Hollywood, Genghis Cohen,  Dana Point Harbor 2nd Sunday Music Series, the Festival of Whales, the Sawdust Festival Laguna Beach, the Coach House Concert Hall and the Galaxy Theater, where she performed with National acts such as the Oak Ridge Boys, Ty Herndon, Hal Ketchum, Craig Morgan, Aaron Lines, Sally Taylor,  The Nelsons and Billy Vera and the Beaters.

          Anna Marie’s songs touch and tug at the hearts of all. She has mastered the most important ingredient of good music… feelings.
