Multi-instrumentalist MARO wraps VEGA in singer-songwriter magic
MARO is a multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and producer, and although originally from Lisbon, she graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston in 2017.
In 2019, she joined Jacob Collier on his DJESSE World Tour as part of his band, and in the following years she's supported stars such as Jessie J, Charlotte Cardin and ¿Téo? and sold out her own concerts in Portugal, Spain, Mexico and the USA.
In 2020, the project "ITSAME, MARO!" was born - a project dedicated to collaborating across long distances. The series consists of 100 episodes and collaborations with prominent artists from all genres, including Eric Clapton, Lennon Stella, The Paper Kites, Pablo Alborán and Lizzy McAlpine.
Some may also recognise MARO from Eurovision, where she represented Portugal in 2022 with the song "saudade, saudade" and made it to the top 10. In the same year, she released the album can you see me?, where she sonically explored wider than ever before, ranging from pop, trap, world and folk. The album features the track "we've been loving in silence", which has been singled out by Billie Eilish as one of her personal favourite tracks.
MARO's latest album hortelã (2023) brings intimate and stripped-down versions of her latest songs to life with a more folky and acoustic sound.
