Famously!

Unapologetically genuine, wry, hard-headed and soft-hearted - Mariel Buckley has planted her flag firmly as a songwriter who’s in it for the long haul. She aims to find herself squarely on the fringes and exactly where she belongs: singing songs for the underdog. Her candor and magnetic live show have been charming listeners since her debut album, Driving In The Dark [2018], and the critically acclaimed, genre-defying follow-up, Everywhere I Used To Be [2022]. 

Buckley’s work carries a signature melancholy in tone, paired with undeniably hook-laden arrangements. The result is a driving, swooning, toe-tapping catharsis; sealed and delivered by her laser-sharp vocals and an angst-ridden delivery. Having made an intentional move towards decidedly contemporary production in recent years, she is revisiting influences from her younger years, currently obsessing over grunge and 90s alt/indie rock.
