Marshall Titus
Singer-Songwriter-Performer-Producer-Actor.
And it all starts with that voice, the deep passion of it, the dark longing and fine gravel of it. Listen as it soars. Listen as it travels through triumphs, through loss. Hear how it captures moments like some aural camera snapping elusive photographs. See it, feel it, know it. Now, let it inside you.
"I am an artist who is not dictated by current trends, or bound by tradition. I am guided by the yearning of my soul's creative desire and self discovery."
Born and raised in Chicago, Titus is a four-time champion and finalist on the hit TV show Star Search, an award winning stage actor, critically acclaimed songwriter. His voice has been heard on numerous radio/TV commercials and jingles, and he makes a cameo appearance in the box office hit movie "Barbershop".
"The Reality of Dreams Project" contains self-written, performed and produced songs (co-produced by Keith Henderson) on his own Doc O Soc Entertainment Group label.
" 'The Reality of Dreams Project' is a testament of faith. It is an expression of where my life is at right now. On many levels, it's about my inner journey and evolution as an artist, musician and spiritual man living in a world that is moving faster than ever before, all the while striving to stay true to myself and my vision. It deals with opening up to life and love, after feeling closed down and isolated. Belonging, holding on to, and letting go of those things and people that no longer work in our life. But above all else, it's about perseverance, courage and faith, having a vision and realizing it. How would I describe this CD? I would have to say it's soulful, sensual, melodic, fluid, cinematic and timeless. Its influences are varied, and reflect my different tastes and moods. If anyone wants to get to know me, just listen to this CD. If music is the universal language, then I want to speak to the world." (from: cdbaby.com )
Marshall Titus -- Titus Vol 1 (2003)
Homegrown soul from the Chicago scene -- featuring the work of mellow maestro Marshall Titus! Titus hails from a tradition that includes Marvin Gaye, The Isleys, and The O'Jays during their smoother 80s years -- but he's also got a firm grip on his own sound that's apparent in the construction of the tunes.

Marshall Titus -- Reality Of Dreams Project (2003)
A really nice set of mellow soul tracks from Chicago's Marshall Titus -- recorded in a personal, intimate style. The overall groove is nice and laidback, and Marshall's vocals flow out with ease along side some gentle guitar, beats, and keys -- making for a captivating approach that's surprisingly lush, given the spareness of the instrumentation.
