Born in the Philippines and raised in Singapore, singer-songwriter Marian Carmel's ethereal vocals evoke emotions and breathe life into her songs, which are influenced by the story-driven songwriting styles of Lizzy McAlpine, Sabrina Claudio, Dayglow and Valley.

 

The indie-pop artist was most recently featured as Spotify EQUAL’s cover artist of the month, representing women in Singapore and Malaysia. Marian also embarked on a nationwide tour in the Philippines with AOR Global and ABS-CBN's Starpop for a mental health campaign during which she also performed for Manalo's star-studded 20th Music Anniversary Concert.

 

Marian’s bubbly personality and versatility shines through across genres. Having released her first significant body of work in 2021, Marian Carmel’s debut album, to you, to me, has solidified her position in the region as one of the most promising singer-songwriters and topliners from Singapore. She is currently working on her next project with Charlie Kurata, the producer behind her debut album’s lead single Pause + Reset
