One rainy day I was walking alone on an empty beach in Costa Rica and it changed my life. In a challenging time processing my emotions, I wrote the lyrics from my heart and soul: “Give it all to the Ocean, let it be washed away.” The words flowed effortlessly as I visioned myself singing this song to thousands of people, uplifting and inspiring them to realize they are powerful and can return to their joy. I brought in my producer, who has Brazilian roots, to bring in South American vibes.

Authentically captivating the audience with a guitar and a soothing voice glistening with passion, singer-songwriter Maxim Marlo completely transformed his whole life and moved from the start-up hustle in Berlin to a bold new life in the jungle of Costa Rica, where he has recorded his first feel-good indie-folk hit song that feels remarkably intimate and relatable to everyone on the path of creating a better world together. 

The calling to purely write, compose and play from his heart, soul and higher self came early in Maxim’s life. Before his first words, he was playing all the toy instruments he could get his hands on, and before his first day of school, he was already dressing like a rockstar and performed on stage for the first time in kindergarten. Since then, he has deepened his studies in the art of songwriting, composing and production with some of the best minds in the industry, receiving guidance from mentors and producers of A-level artists and Grammy-awarded music. 

His soothing voice and uplifting lyrics feel like a warm hug embracing yourself in moments of challenges, raising your head up, proudly standing tall with a courageous heart, ready to embrace change with confidence, positivity and joy. 

“I can relate to your emotions, experiences, and challenges in this journey called life,” he reveals. “I'm living it, going through the ups and downs myself, so I am with you. I share my learnings through my music to inspire and support you on your journey.”
