Marc Schuster
"Marc Schuster is an insanely creative, multi-talented guy from the Philadelphia area... Not only is he an educator, author, literary critic and visual artist, he’s also a prolific songwriter and musician, recording both as a solo artist and as part of numerous music projects and collaborations with an ever-expanding roster of musicians... As if all that weren’t enough, he also started doing a weekly hour-long music podcast a few months ago... where he features songs by talented indie artists he’s met through Twitter. I honestly don’t know how he finds the time and energy to accomplish all that he does!"
- Jeff Archuleta, Eclectic Music Lover
