#74 Marie Noreger – Eager to Feel
Norwegian R&B artist Marie Noreger returns with another effortlessly cool single Eager to Feel. This is the third instalment in the lead up to the 23-year-olds debut EP which follows the collectively impressive releases Adore and Soulfully High. Receiving raving reviews from the likes of CLASH Magazine and Colours, this is an exciting taste of what’s to come, creating a sound that is uniquely expressive and soulful.
Eager to Feel’s poetic tone is perfected with a subtle beat driven, Jazz-infused offering that gently traces Marie’s inner yearning to feel, illuminated by her sophisticated penmanship and thought-evoking lyricism.
“Eager to Feel” is about the pain and the pleasure about being a human. I captured a specific head space in the process of making this song. Questions like “Am I a slave to my thoughts” entered my mind. Feelings and emotions captured most likely in a young body. As a teenager or young adult it can be so difficult to understand yourself, where you come from, what you´re built of, and just what this whole life means. But as a human I don’t think we ever really stop questioning our own existence and position in life, and I think it’s important to put light on that to prevent us from feeling alone.
– Marie Noreger
Marie grew up in a creative family, influenced by the sounds of obscure 90’s house remixes and so it’s no surprise her passion fell with music. She’s a multitalented artist, working as a freelance photographer, and so her music continuously captures a distinct and artistic expression.
“I have a lot of emotions I haven’t processed properly, and they come out through the music. I write a lot about what it’s like to be human in the society we live in, and how it feels to be around other people.”
Her upcoming EP, set to be released in March 2021, is a culmination of her talents, from artwork to music videos, produced and organised by Marie herself. The debut will be recorded together with her producer and manager Kim Ofstad at his home studio.
A lot’s in store for this newcomer and two further singles are still to be released before her debut EP, so watch this space!
