Marcelle George, originally from Christchurch, is a New Zealand\u2013born singer-songwriter based in the United States. After the 2011 earthquake, her family relocated to the U.S., a shift that would later infuse her music with themes of nostalgia, and perspective.<\/p>\n
A multifaceted artist who writes, performs, and produces all her work, Marcelle, rooted in indie folk, weaves intimate storytelling with soft, atmospheric soundscapes.<\/p>\n
Her debut album, Born Young<\/em>, marks a bold and heartfelt introduction to her artistry - a coming-of-age record that captures the authenticity, vulnerability, and nostalgia of growing up. Written and produced entirely by Marcelle, the album drifts between soft, lullaby-like pieces such as Elm<\/em> and Ladybug<\/em>, and more reflective, emotionally layered tracks like Goosebumps<\/em>, Jay<\/em>, and I Barely Know<\/em>.<\/p>\n Across the record, her distinctive vocals and naturistic lyricism create an immersive world that feels both deeply personal and universally familiar.<\/p>\n","band_members":"","featured_image":{"width":150,"height":150,"file":"artists\/photo-48.jpeg","filesize":425786,"sizes":{"medium":{"file":"photo-48-300x300.jpeg","width":300,"height":300,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":21718,"url":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-300x300.jpeg"},"large":{"file":"photo-48-1024x1024.jpeg","width":1024,"height":1024,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":269444,"url":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-1024x1024.jpeg"},"thumbnail":{"file":"photo-48-150x150.jpeg","width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":5561,"url":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-150x150.jpeg"},"medium_large":{"file":"photo-48-768x768.jpeg","width":768,"height":768,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":164413,"url":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-768x768.jpeg"},"crp_thumbnail":{"file":"photo-48-150x150.jpeg","width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":5561,"url":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-150x150.jpeg"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1","keywords":[]},"ID":"266010","name":"photo-48.jpeg","path":"\/home\/muzicnz\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48.jpeg","url":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-150x150.jpeg","full_url":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48.jpeg","title":"photo","caption":"","description":"","alt":"Photo","srcset":"https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.muzic.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/artists\/photo-48.jpeg 1110w"},"genre":[{"term_id":21,"name":"Country\/Folk","slug":"country-folk","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":21,"taxonomy":"genre","description":"Country music narrates life's stories with heartfelt lyrics, twangy guitars, and soulful vocals.
