MARC DOUGLAS BERARDO NEWS OCTOBER 2003

A review for As You Make Your Way from MINOR 7TH MAGAZINE

Marc Douglas Berardo "As You Make Your Way" 2003

Featuring a voice in the John Gorka camp, Marc Douglas Berardo drives home this CD with fluid, melodic string arrangements based on his acoustic guitar. His lonesome, clear voice easily carries an aching beauty through introspective songs such as "Untethered" and "The Rum Diary." He digs into darker beauty in the daring 911 song "Just One." One can easily imagine his ability to pull it all off with just his guitar and earnest voice -- a great quality for an active folk circuit performer. "The Story (Life After Hemingway)" is a lyrical stand-out, a kind of anti-"Starry Starry Night" for serious students of the heart. © Steve Klingaman:
