From Entertainment Solutions Inc. "Thank you so much for your participation in the Rock n Roll Dallas Half Marathon. From This event could not have been the enormous success that it was without Miss Marcy and Her Texas Sugar Daddy’s enthusiastic and delightful performance.

SugarDaddy - December 8, 2009

My first original recorded music is "SugarDaddy" which is included on KNON Texas Blues Vol. 4. as well as on my CD. I would like to personally thank my SugarDaddy as I do after each time I sing it. "Thank you SugarDaddy! I'd have never made it through my 20's without you!!"
Sincerely.

Standy By Your Man - December 8, 2009

A song I wrote about an old bass player of mine who is real young and good looking. Sometimes his women would all show up on the same gig and fight to see who got to take him home. I would just think... for a couch and a car, you can have him too. If you don't give him what he wants, the other will... You better stan...d by your man or another woman will come along who can, stand by your man.

Dallas Observer - Best of 2009 - September 24, 2009

Best Blues Club
Pearl at Commerce
2038 Commerce St.
214-655-8824
www.pearlatcommerce.com
Here's the deal, Dallas: Considering how important a role the blues played in our city's musical history (y'know, "Deep Ellum Blues," and all that), it's really a goddamn shame how there aren't all that many clubs—well, many clubs worth mentioning, at least—that offer up the genre on a regular basis. Last we heard, there's one coming back to Deep Ellum, thank you very much, in the spot behind the Twisted Root, right where the Red Blood Club used to be. But for the time being, may we recommend the Pearl for your misery-loves-company ways? Located on the east edge of downtown, it's close to our city's historical blues home in Deep Ellum, and with touring and local blues performers coming in on a regular basis—including a Monday happy hour residency from Miss Marcy and her Texas Sugar Daddies—along with a slew of jazz and folk artists, it's the only place we can look you straight in the eye and offer up as a cure for your Lack of Deep Ellum blues blues.

Notice from Zander's House to their private client listing - August 28, 2009

If you haven’t heard Miss Marcy’s sultry vocals, you’re in for a real treat. Marcy is one heck of an entertainer and for these two engagements she'll bring her full Sugar Daddy band to spice things up. She puts so much energy into her performance that we may go "lights out" as she lights up the stage. Her brand of smokin blues will make you smile, just like our great selection of Vietnamese dishes and Happy Hour prices. Don't Miss IT!

Miss Marcy & her Texas SugarDaddy's at Pearl - April 9, 2009

University of North Texas grad Miss Marcy is a self-proclaimed "bar singer," which means her jazz/blues music goes great with whiskey and a smoky, darkly-lit watering hole. Well, the smoky part might not be realistic right now, but thank God the whiskey still is, and Miss Marcy's great songs like "Sugar Daddy" and "You Got My Man" make us want to go listen to her live, right now. Do it every Monday night in April at the Pearl and step back into another era. 6:30–8pm. Pearl, 2038 Commerce St. 214-655-8824. www.missmarcy.com.

What To Do Mondays in 2009 - January 4, 2009

So I get to the gig at Pearl on Monday and it turns out that we were in the Dallas Morning News Guide Section
in the First Sunday Edition of 2009!!! There was a pic of me and
everything with a caption that read What To Do On Mondays. Oh, they
didn't mean that I was what to do on Mondays! Just that my band
'Miss Marcy & her Texas SugarDaddy's' every Monday at Pearl is What
To Do on Mondays!!

Does anyone still have, not yesterday's paper, but the Sunday before?
I'd love a copy for my mom. She doesn't believe that I'm spending
all my time in bars for music.


Thanks for all your support Dallas Morning News!!

Dallas Morning News - October 20, 2008

Can you believe it?!!! I get to the gig tonight at Pearl and the house is packed. I'm told that we are in today's edition of the DMN!! I doubt you will find a copy remaining, because I've already bought out two 7-11's!! For those who already used the paper to line the bird's cage..... here's what was said about Miss Marcy & her Texas SugarDaddy's....p 2E of the DMN, my picture and all, center, slightly to the right....at the TOP of the page!!
" Get the blues... in a good way with Miss Marcy & Her Texas Sugar Daddies performing bluesy jazz from 6:30-8 tonight at Pearl. Where are our personal Texas Sugardaddies- or several?"


I'm so happy!!!

Miss Marcy on radio in Italy - July 29, 2008

Can you believe it? An Italian radio station contacted me and
requested 'Miss Marcy & her Texas SugarDaddy's' original music.
Here is the radio station. Check list below to see where we are on
the playlist..

http://www.radiorcc.com/launch.html

You can see from the list below, we are some damn good company. This
is a BIG DEAL!!! Europeans love the Blues! I got my Passport, I'm
ready! Check out the program, I have never heard it said like
"Shoog-rr Dadee". Soooo Sexy! If anyone speaks Italian, please tell
me what the DJ is saying before and after he plays my song. He talks
about the band at great length but I can't translate it. Does
SugarDaddy mean the same thing in Italian as it does in English?

KNON 89.3 fm or online www.knon.org

Blue Lisa, Andrea Dawson, Cheryl Arena, and Miss Marcy will be
violating the airwaves this Thursday morning from 9am-12pm on KNON
89.3 fm. We're meeting for mimosas before the show to help inspire
us with a theme. As it is, we thought we would girl-gossip about all
the Dallas musicians and ruin some reputations. Ain't nobody can tell
a story like 4 drunken Blues Gals with a microphone and a grudge!

Miss Marcy and Her Texas Sugardaddys band can be found around town this summer at Greenville Avenue Seafood and Jazz, Pearl, Culpepper’s, and occasionally at The Balcony Club.

Miss Marcy

Are you originally from Dallas?
I was born here, moved away, and now I’m back.
How long have you been singing? I started at blues musician Hashbrown’s jam at Lakewood Bar and Grill and the old Schooner’s 10 years ago. I’ve had my own band, Miss Marcy and Her Texas Sugardaddys, for a couple of years now.
How did you get started as a singer/songwriter? I’d been playing the DFW circuit for a while and Don O., Friday DJ for KNON 89.3 FM, said I could be included on the KNON 89.3 FM Texas Blues Vol. 4 CD if I had an original tune. So, I wrote the song “SugarDaddy” and asked my friends to record it with me.
What music or musicians inspire you? Traditional blues and Texas country are what I dig. I like grassroots music. The musicians that inspire me most are Hashbrown and the late, great Sam Myers.
Why the blues? Because it’s real. You don’t need a degree, an attitude, or an electrical outlet. Just some whiskey and soul.
Do you play any instruments? I play the piano badly.
What’s the most incredible life experience you have had so far? Both of my original tunes, “SugarDaddy” and “Restraining Order,” advanced to the next round in their respective categories in the 2006 International Songwriting Competition.
What’s the best thing about your job? It doesn’t feel like a job.
What are your favorite Lakewood hangouts? The Balcony Club, La Parrillada, Lakewood Bar and Grill, Scalini’s Pizza and Pasta, The Cock and Bull, and Lakewood Library
Favorite guilty pleasure? Going into Chocolate Secrets and pretending to be purchasing a large order just so I can feast on the chocolate samples.
When you’re not working, what do you do? Support live music in Dallas
