FOUR-MINUTE MOVIES

Ira Marlowe's songs have been described as "four-minute movies", highly visual songs with the rare combination of lyrical wit and emotional impact.  

He’s been acclaimed not only for his remarkable lyrics—comic, tragic, witty, heartfelt, laugh-out-loud funny—but for his fluency in such varied realms as pop, rock, folk, musical theater, kids’ music and more. 


Marlowe sold his soul to the devil to develop the sound that he continues to perfect. There will soon be a time when he completely blows up, Tom Waits-style, and you can say you saw him when.
