Hi Marshall,
I stocked up on your CDs during the Houston Quilt Festival. However, I’d like to thank you for encouraging me to buy A Face in the Cloud. I can’t tell you how much I’ve enjoyed loosing myself in the music. Thanks again.

I downloaded "A face in the cloud" from Emule among other stuff. When listening to it, I found it was amazing and thought, "This is it, this is the music I like and I have to buy the CDs". Checking this website, I found that it's interesting with Marshall's idea that only instrumental and atmosphere music will lift the listeners above and beyond. Thanks Marshall and Kate for brought your oustanding music to this world.

Good afternoon,
Just wanted to let you know that your music is so inspirational to me. I have always wanted a chance to move people with music the way yours moves me. I am now beginning to learn piano after having been so inspired. Thank you for sharing your amazing gift with the world.

It is a dreary mid 40s morning here, and I'm playing Mockingbird Station, which really helps the mood in this old house (built 184 . Your music is universal and it really makes my day better by just listening to your CDs. My wife is in Texas for a meeting, but as I told her, I just listen to Marshall's music, close my eyes, and I'm back in the Hill Country. Thanks Marshall and Kate... you two are a blessing to a lot of us.

I received your collection yesterday. I LOVE IT. I had your Trilogy years ago but so many have borrowed them and never returned. I thought it was time to replenish my Marshall Styler collection. There are so many words of inspiration I could share with you but then I would take up to much space on your messages. Your music is inspiring and calming. I use it in my classroom and when I travel. My son downloaded your music on an IPOD.....that is all they would allow them to take to Iraq. He said it was so inspiring to escape in your music. The night before he left....both times....we rode around, sharing moments, praying and listening to your music. I am showing my students the DVD. we love it. I teach special needs students and they love the DVD most because of the beautiful pictures. Thank you so much for your talent....it is a true gift. I was a music major in college, but because I play by ear.....I was always in trouble with my instructors, so I changed my major....but you make playing by ear look good. Thankyou again for sharing your talent with the world.

There's nothing more inspiring than being married to a person who believes in you and inspires you to be more than you could be without her ... to do more than you could do without her. It's clear that Kate is that person for you. Congratulations!
I, too, am married to such a person: my Charlotte. Just completed our 38th wedding anniversary yesterday. We were playing your music in the car while taking my wife's 86 year old mother to the eye doctor. She was as impressed as Charlotte and I were when we first heard your music a couple of weeks ago and I am ordering a cd for Charlotte's mom today.
As the former Ambassador of FUN for Southwest Airlines I do a lot of presentations on the power of fun to get more done. I encourage my audiences to collect energy songs, relaxation songs, fun songs and frisky songs to enliven and enrich their lives. I will be highly recommending your music.
Last month, while speaking to the Texas Payroll Conference, a lady who had heard me before came up to me and presented me with a gift of your CD "Mockingbird Station" saying it had impacted her life in a powerful way.
I listened to it after I arrived home and now know why. And I agree with that lady. Marshall, you have a gift. Maybe it wasn't your intent to write healing music, but it appears to be exactly what you've done.
I believe you have the ultimate "road rage remedy" in your music. Count on me to help spread the word on the one of the best kept secrets in the country: Marshall Styler!

Marshall,
I want to share a very special story that I think will move you and anyone else that reads this. My mom is a HUGE fan of yours. As a matter of fact, I picked up one of your new cds on a trip to Frederickburg this summer and had the pleasure of getting it autographed by you. I shared with you that my mom just went through breast cancer treatment and I wanted to get the cd for her. After hurricane Ike got finished pounding us my mom was sp stressed out she had a massive stroke and the prognosis was grim. She mentioned she wanted your Red River crossing cd played at her funeral. On September 27th she was given 24 hours to live, but a miracle happened the morning of September 28th and she said a guardian angel that looked like Marshall Styler had been there in the hospital for several nights with us, and he informed her that it was going to be okay and God was not ready for her and she was to stay with her family. I have obviously shortened this long story but I just want to let you know just how much you have touched the life of my mom and our family. God bless you and the beautiful music you make. I will be using her story as a testamonial at church to share the miracle performed and the awesome God we have. Many people have also learned about you through this experience. Needless to stay the entire medical staff was amazed by her transformation she literally went from dying to feeling better in just the blink of time after my mom said her angel left the room. The hospice nurse said she had never seen such a drastic change in anyone in her 28 years of doing her job. It was truly a miracle from God and a blessing for us. She is recovering nicely and hopes to get to go to the hill country soon and listen to Red River crossing that she so dearly loves. Please feel free to contact me at jkraemer@eastex.net for updates or additional information. Thanks again, and keep up the great work!

Wow, your musical journey is a joy to experience - not a surprise. My daughter's step son is moving to Austin in December. Will recommend he finds a way to hear you.
Hard to believe it has been 41 years since I heard you play live. All the best to you and all of yours.

I've been a fan for several years since my wife and I heard Marshall's music playing from a store in Fredericksburg. We enjoyed meeting Katherine, but missed meeting Marshall. I've always enjoyed listening to his music while we're traveled all over the country. We moved to Ohio last year and I listen to his music every day. I can "feel" the Hill Country and when I close my eyes, I can "see" driving down back roads with bluebonnets everywhere. Thanks to both of you for your sharing of this great music. Marshall is the artist, but I feel that Katherine is his inspiration along with the beautiful Hill Country of Texas.
