Over the past handful of years, Roskilde-born, London-based singer/songwriter, producer and JOVM mainstay Marie Dahlstrøm has built a catalog of contemporary R&B rooted in neo-soul, jazz and understated groove that includes 2020’s Like Sand and 2023’s A Good Life, albums that have received applause from Billboard, NPR, Complex, COLORS, NYLON, The Line of Best Fit, Wonderland and a list of others. Dahlstrom has also received co-signs from BBC 1Xtra, The Joe Budden Podcast and others. Adding to a growing national and internationally recognized profile, she has collaborated with Odeal, Jay Prince, Kofi Stone and Braxton Cook.

Building upon a growing profile, the Danish-born JOVM mainstay will be releasing a highly-anticipated effort later this year. The new effort will mark a new chapter for the acclaimed and rising artist, and it will include her latest single, the Dan Diggas-produced “Frostbite.”

“Frostbite” is a lush mix of Quiet Storm-inspired neo-soul, hip-hop soul and broodingly chilly atmospherics featured twinkling keys paired with the JOVM mainstay’s effortlessly soulful and expressive delivery. While pushing her sound into an increasingly atmospheric direction, the song is rooted in the acclaimed artist’s knack for penning lyrics that are lived-in personal yet universal experience.

“‘Frostbite’ is a song about longing and about how the feeling lingers in the body. It’s drawn from many experiences in my life, all wrapped into this piece,” Dahlstrøm explains. “It was recorded on my old piano at my parents’ house in Roskilde, in my childhood bedroom. We tracked it with one small mic held close to the piano — nothing pro about it at all — but the instrument has this warm, muted tone that really captured the feeling. To me, this is what music is about.”
