Award winning English singer, songwriter and actress Marianne Faithfull has had a remarkable career spanning over six decades. Born on 29th December 1946 in Hampstead, London, England, she is known for her unique voice and powerful performances.
During the late 1960s, Marianne gained significant attention not only for her talent but also for her highly-publicized romantic relationship with Mick Jagger, the lead singer of the Rolling Stones. This period further solidified her status as an iconic figure in the music industry.
With numerous accolades to her name and a diverse discography that showcases her versatility as an artist, Marianne Faithfull continues to captivate audiences worldwide with her timeless music and captivating stage presence.

A unique new album of poetry and music featuring Marianne Faithfull, set to the music of Warren Ellis, and featuring Nick Cave, Brian Eno and Vincent Ségal.

Marianne Faithfull releases one of the most distinctive albums of her extraordinary life and career with composer and multi-instrumentalist Warren Ellis. It was recorded just before and during the first Covid-19 lockdown – during which the singer herself became infected and almost died. Together with musical friends and family, She Walks in Beauty fulfils Faithfull’s long-held ambition to record an album of poetry with music.

Delving deep into her past, it’s a record that draws on her passion for the English Romantic poets, a passion she fostered at St Joseph's Convent School before leaving for London at the age of 16. There she entered the world of "As Tears Go By," of Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones, setting her on a left-hand path to pop stardom. Sixties iconography and outrage followed, as did her subsequent battles with addiction before her 1979 return to powerful female and artistic autonomy with Broken English.
