Marianne Leigh is a young creative from Auckland, New Zealand with a love for songwriting, developing her talents from the young age of 10. Her songs are an honest and personal echo of her own life, her writing capturing a moment or feeling. 

The 17 year old has worked hard to hold high achievements to her name, such as being featured on the 2018 and 2019 Play It Strange competition albums, with her singles "You" and "Not Enough". Marianne brought her talent to TV, appearing on the What Now TV Show and Cath Vincent Talk Show. In 2019, she came home with 1st place in the nation wide Smokefree Rockquest songwriting competition with her single "Best of Me".​

Since then, Marianne has been busy creating her debut EP "Timeline", out now. 

“If anything, it’s very clear that Marianne has a very promising future ahead of her – one that will most certainly carry her music far beyond this most recent timeline. This girl is one to watch”

– Tearaway Magazine.

​NZ Musician Magazine writes about “Timeline” in high regard, writing,

​“Authenticity beams through Marianne Leigh’s connection, vast musical space and raw artistry. A significant debut accomplishment for this young song bird, who lays out a bold and honest timeline of events.”
