Hailing from Liverpool, England, fans first got a taste of Marsha’s talent as the singing half of the duo Floetry. Their 2000 debut Floetic produced signature singles like “Say Yes" and "Getting Late". Following the 2005 release of their second studio album, Flo’Ology, the ladies veered creatively and personally. While the split was difficult, Marsha continued to build a name for herself as a songwriter and producer, creating “Butterflies” for the late Michael Jackson and other hits for artists such as Alicia Keys, Justin Timberlake, Jamie Foxx and Nas

Over the years, Marsha has stayed relevant as an artist via touring, writing/producing and mixtapes like 2007’s Neo Soul is Dead, 2008’s Yours Truly and 2010’s Yours Sincerely. She also appeared as a featured artist on projects from Patti Labelle, The Game, Busta Rhymes, Jamie Foxx and Earth, Wind & Fire, among others. Eventually, Marsha signed with Dr. Dre’s Aftermath Records however a much-buzzed about solo debut never materialized due to creative glitches. Marsha's solo debut, LATE NIGHTS & EARLY MORNINGS is destined to be a classic, as Marsha offers a candid glimpse of her life and perspectives as a woman. Musical peers recruited to contribute to the project include Alicia Keys, a reunion with Dre and Vidal (producers of “Say Yes”), Just Blaze and Focus

It's been a few years since her last UK show & this will be her first UK show since achieving her first USA No.1 with her album "Late Nights & Early Mornings".
Now with regular playlisting from BET and shows up and down the USA Marsha has well and truly one the USA's ears. Marsha continues to collaborate with other artists inc. Slum Village and Daley. Performing her new album on the night + brand new material and Floetry favourites with full live band. Keep The Faith brought the UK Marsha's first solo performance after her band the influential celebrated UK NeoSoul act Floetry split up. That show sold out quickly and another road block is anticipated for this Dec 19th 2012 London show - buy your tickets asap to avoid disappointment.
