Glad To See You

Another Bottle Soon

With the  Winter Solstice upon us, I felt the need to write a song about, when its the darkest of days, we should still look for the light

Shortest Day

Leavin' Liverpool

Supposed To Know is the third single from my debut EP, and is my personal favourite from the release. It's about how I'm currently doing the sort of day job I always thought I wanted but I'm not feeling fulfilled by it. As a result I've spent a lot of time asking myself what I would really enjoy, and had little success coming up with an answer. The song is really about my frustration with this. With not knowing how I want to spend my time, but feeling as if I should know - as expressed in the song's chorus 'I wonder where I'll find a home, it feels like I'm just supposed to know'. Recorded, mixed and produced by Gethin Pearson, who also wrote & performed bass. Mastered by Steven Kerry. Drums were written and performed by Phillip Jenkins.

Marina came to performing late in life although very soon after making the decision to "come out of the kitchen" she was awarded Arts Council funding, via the Escalator Project, to record a debut album, Somewhere Down The Line. Using this as a platform she has since reached audiences not previously thought possible.
Now with four albums completed she's been played on BBC6Music, BBC introducing Norfolk and Suffolk, had four tracks make the Tom Robinson's BBC6 Mixtape. Her song Cry was performed by the actor Anthony Head on ITV's This Morning.
Jan 2019, Marina, & co-writer Jules Fox Allen, won the FATEA Innovation Award alongside The Warm & Toasty Club founder, Johnno Casson, for the lottery & Arts Council funded, Memory Afternoons Project. The songs written can be heard here on SoundCloud.
Marina has played many festivals including Cambridge Folk Festival, Strawberry Fair, Norwich and Norfolk Festival.
She has been a Moderator for Fresh On The Net.
