Bio
Known for weaving dreamy vintage sounds into thoughtful, carefully crafted songs, Oddeline is the name given to the work of singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer, Marianne Keuleman.
After two years of performing in local bars and coffeehouses, both solo and with her band, Oddeline's first release was the 2020 single "Daughter," a shimmering folk rock track with lyrics that question the influence societal expectations have on how we see ourselves. Following the release of "Daughter" and the breakup of her band, Oddeline began to experiment with a more independent, DIY approach to music-making, learning to record and release music from the comfort of her home studio. Her debut EP Fated to Drown is the first release to come out of this experimentation.
“[As] the folky/jazzy EP unfolds, so too does Oddeline's determination to face her problems and to become a person she's proud of...Fated to Drown may sound hazy but it's full of courage.”
