Marlin Biography
Musical, inspired, and passionate - that’s how I see myself.
In addition to Switzerland, where I was born and raised, I have roots in Guinea and Hungary. My diverse family background sparked my love for music and performance early on. My dad introduced me to some of the best R&B, hip-hop, and reggae from the ’90s, with artists like Alicia Keys, Lauryn Hill, Usher, and Bob Marley shaping my taste. I loved singing karaoke, and my favorite song was “No One” by Alicia Keys.
In 2015, I joined a school choir project, and performing solos showed me just how much I loved singing for an audience. That experience solidified my desire to pursue music. Throughout high school, I took individual singing lessons and began writing my own lyrics.
The first EP, 688, was a collaborative project with my long-time friend and producer Gabiga, released in 2019 under the name "Ozyah." This EP led to my first performances in Zurich, Aarau, and Baden. By 2022, I had released my first single, More, under my own name, which gained airplay on Swiss radio.
My music reflects the hardships and joys of life, and I don’t shy away from expressing vulnerability in my lyrics. I value authenticity and naturalness, both in my music and my appearance.
Prominent radio stations like SRF 3, SRF Virus, Couleur 3 Global Soul Radio have supported my music with airplay, which led to opportunities to open for artists like Dillon Cooper, Nativ & Pablo Nouvelle, and Naomi Lareine.
In April 2024, I was part of the Mountain Academy at Zermatt Unplugged, where I performed two showcases. Over the summer, I took the stage at Gurten Festival and Lake Live Festival as well. In October 2024, I had the incredible opportunity to join the Montreux Jazz Residency. Surrounded by world-class musicians and mentors, I was able to dive into a range of activities that offered truly valuable insights and left me with new perspectives.
My debut EP, New Her, is out now everywhere. It’s a deeply personal exploration of my journey through a toxic relationship. Produced by Gabiga, the EP blends R&B and pop, drawing inspiration from artists like Masego, Anderson .Paak, Greentea Peng, and Jorja Smith. Through vulnerable lyrics and authentic sound, I hope to create a space for listeners to reflect on their own emotions.
