Artist of the Week is Marie Naffah
Our Artist of the Week is Marie Naffah.
We’re thrilled to feature Marie Naffah as this week’s AOTW, especially as we welcome her to the lineup of our upcoming FFWD / Richer Unsigned Conference.
Described by The Independent as “following in the restless footsteps of the great folk and rock songwriters” and praised by NME for delivering “a brilliant show”, Marie is a London-based singer-songwriter whose music seamlessly blends the timeless spirit of classic storytellers – think Dylan, The Beatles, Joni Mitchell – with the bold, modern edge of artists like Sharon Van Etten, Bleachers, and Big Thief.
Listen to ‘Rust & Blue’ of her debut album here:
Her debut album ‘Mother of Pearl’, released in June 2024, has already earned widespread critical acclaim from the likes of BBC, NME, New Music Friday, and The Independent. But it’s not just her sound that sets her apart – Marie’s commitment to meaningful fan connection underpins everything she does. This ethos was on full display during her recent sold-out UK tour, which wrapped with a triumphant performance at London’s EartH Theatre.
We’re excited to spotlight her work this week and even more excited to hear her insights at the FFWD / Richer Unsigned Conference on June 5th.
