about

Marla (born 1995) is a German/Spanish singer-songwriter based in Heidelberg, Germany. Her debut album ‘Madawaska Valley’ was recorded in Toronto and released via Melting Pot Music, a record label in Cologne.
Even though Marla sang her whole life, she never thought she’d pursue music. As her sister quit the guitar, Marla picked it up and covered tunes until she started writing around the age of 15. Besides the fact that she played classical cello since age 6, she grew up with no musical background in her family. Addicted to live shows at a young age, she discovered and met L.A. songwriter Robert Francis, her biggest musical influence at the time. From then on she knew that touching people through music is what she would do, the same way he and many others did.
Until the age of 19 she has routinely performed in some of the best concert venues around her hometown, opening for artists like Jessica Pratt, Spring Offensive, Ewert & The Two Dragons and Rue Royale. Also aspiring to be recognized as an established songwriter, her latest tunes are catching up with her stunning voice and intriguing personality.
Inspired by traveling the world, Marla is processing her lost love in these songs, softly picked on acoustic guitar. Her mellow dreamy melodies and deep airy voice might remind one of artists like Nick Drake and Jessica Pratt.
Since 2015 she has been touring through Europe, Russia & Canada with Candian Singer Songwriter David Celia, whom she started the duo 'Marla & David Celia' with. They have released two full length studio albums and played over 900 shows together.
