DIVA

Painting the world red

Marie Ringheim is the Norwegian indie-pop singer-songwriter better known as girl in red. With anthemic tracks about queer romance and mental health, along with a confidence to rival musicians years ahead of her, she is taking the music scene by storm.

A break-out pop star, delivering DIY music directly from her bedroom, she stands out among the rest. Her first single, boldly titled I Wanna Be Your Girlfriend, has gained over 50 million streams on Spotify, and was listed at number nine on The New York Times list of The 68 Best Songs Of 2018.

Her lyrics read like the diary of any queer teenager; poignant, punchy and unapologetically filled with Marie’s personality, honesty and forthright feelings about falling in love.
