Marie Naffah has released her debut EP Golden State today (April 9th) via Frictionless Music. It is out now on all streaming platforms here. Marie will be premiering a live performance of the EP in its entirety on her YouTube channel tonight at 6:30pm GMT here.
The EP is influenced by a life-changing trip Marie took across America's West Coast and is inspired by the sights, sounds and feelings she encountered there. It features the brand new track 'Cold Water', a luscious soulful love song and a spectacular example of Marie's show-stopping vocals. The EP also features previously released and well-received singles including the brooding indie-pop anthem 'Wasteland', groove-laden 'The Cage' and the chill-hop jazz-influenced 'California'. Regarding the EP Marie says, "It feels awesome to be releasing this EP because the individual songs really feel like they were born, and belong, together. The songs are multi-layered memories of my trip to the West Coast of America: the going, the coming home, the exhaustion and the exhilarating revitalisation that comes with an adventure. There's a song for every mood. "The title 'Golden State' references the Californian road trip that sparked inspiration for the EP tracks. It also serves as a reflection of the ideal state of mind that I either felt or longed for in the process of making them.Listen here:
