Regarding Madeleine D'Arcy Marston
Artist Journey
Born on the rural coast of South West England, I grew up performing. Tap dancing, singing, and acting in Musical Theatre led me towards the lifestyle of a creative.
Having been inspired by the likes of Dolly Parton and Paolo Nutini, I've been songwriting from the age of 7 and eventually reached for the drumsticks at 15.
A long standing obsession with film, soundtracks, and scores was the incentive for my journalistic debut, a published album review for LOUD WOMEN, as well as running my own newsletter publication on my Substack.
With the launch of my content creation journey in the mix, the cultivation of my creative library has only just begun, with so much future potential in the cards...
I claim my job to be...
