Marie Glad

Artist Information

Biography

'Intriguing, sensual and rich in depth'.

Marie Glad is working on a new feeling. A collection of bedroom stories, heartbeats and new collaborations. In the borderland between pop and electro. The first part of the triology Bedroom Stories will be released in December 2010. The second and third part will be released in 2011.

With a deep, resonant voice and vivid melodies, Marie Glad takes us on an unforgettable journey through life and love on her remarkable debut album, Rescue Me.

From the quiet determination of Strange Love to the wistful yet upbeat All Fools Are Kings. From the hauntingly melodic Rescue Me to the searing refrain of the balladlike Lucky Star - these are songs written from the heart that live on in the memory, as much for their lyricism as their raw honesty. Powerful stories born of experience. In the words of Songbirds, “The truth has no disguise”- something that Marie Glad probes unflinchingly.

The debut album Rescue Me was released October 13, 2009.

Influences: Feist, PJ Harvey, Kate Bush, Jónsi, Joni Mitchell, Björk, Sophie Zelmani.

Her pleasurable music balances between pop and jazz at moments resembling Emmylou Harris. Marie Glads powerful and distinct voice is the greatest feature of this album since it lifts the music to a higher level at the same time as it adds a dash of strong charisma.”
