The Pulse of Entertainment: Country/Pop's Therese Marie Re-Release ‘American Beauty' Single with Music Video

By Eunice Moseley

(May 22, 2020) - "I am re-releasing the single, but I just released another song as well," said Therese Marie, a Hip-Hop Country/Pop singer/songwriter who is re-releasing her single "American Beauty," featuring St. Louis rapper Zeus Rebel Waters (formerly known as Rukapuf), along with an accompanying music video in September, and whose current single "East Side Party" is a collaboration with Hip-Hop living legend Snoop Dogg. "I was opening for Little John, had a Denver concert at Mile High, which seats 30,000, when all those shows were canceled with the corona. The music video is for a song I wrote 8 years ago."

Therese Marie plans to go on tour in the Fall of 2020 after the re-release of her "American Beauty" single and music video. The single "American Beauty" (Jade Wind Music) is produced by Jim Callahan and "East Side Party" is produced by DHawk.

"I made good contacts," she said when asked about how the re-release and music video came to be. She said she met a videographer and publicist all around the same time who helped her with the video and getting it on major networks such as VH1 and TNT. "The song ("American Beauty") is a fun Pop song about how two treat a woman and it has a cute video."

An East St. Louis native, Therese Marie picked up the guitar at a reform school around age 12 and fell in love with it. At the school she taught herself how to play the guitar and the piano. With the help of a fellow student she co-wrote her first song and she had her first performance when she sang for one of the Nuns at the school. Therese Marie went on to attend the College of Ozarks where she performed in theatre projects that garnered her awards.

"I'm in St. Louis moving back to Texas," Therese Marie said when I asked where she was in the country. "My family is from there...my music producer lives in Dallas."
