Marlene knows the blues from an Aboriginal woman’s perspective. Her story is one of vulnerability, strength and survival. A biographical journey that encompasses a tapestry of political, social, and personal experiences, beautifully woven into her lyrics and songs.

Blending original compositions and traditional blues numbers, the standout evocative blues anthem titled “Koori Woman,” is a heartfelt tribute dedicated to Aboriginal women worldwide, whom Marlene considers the backbone of the struggle.

“The life Marlene has lived is closer to the life that produced those original blues singers like Muddy Waters than any contemporary American blues artist.” Richard Field, Producer.
