A fascinating and exotic entertainer, Marina Xavier is arguably one of South East Asia's most talented vocalists. Marina was born and blossomed in multi-racial Singapore. Combining natural gifts of charm and rhythm, the sultry excitement of her voice stays with listeners long after the show has ended. Success in and around Singapore was just not enough. On arrival in Europe it was the Paris Jazz & Pop scene that kept her busy. It was not long before collaborations with celebrated and recognized artists in France sent her in a new direction. This lead to co-writing and a duet with "Les Rita Mitsouko" on their fourth album "System D" (Virgin) recorded in Paris, Morocco and New York with Tony Visconti. Marina was also a main feature on the album of the decade "DEENASTYLE" by the renowned DJ, Dee Nasty ( Universal ).
Once again Marina shows her versatile and inimitable talent both as a singer/songwriter. This Pop/Soul sensation created massive waves all over South East Asia with her self penned English version of "MADE IN INDIA". Her 1998 album with VMP (Valentine Music Productions) has gathered her a new legion of fans. With exciting singles from the album topping the charts: DO THE DUT (dangdut) and BLAME IT ON THE BOSSA NOVA. It's no surprise how BUSCA AMOR, a latin inspired track, took Spain & Latin America by storm. Her popularity in Singapore thrives on a wide scale, be it sensuous Jazz or Pop-Soul. Catch her right now with her own international band, showcasing the exciting hits and forthcoming tracks, in a pulsating and memorable musical experience. Her last release "DENGARIN" ("The Ring A Ling Song"), a happy tale about telephone addiction, is currently enjoying Radio Play in South East Asia. It is featured on several best selling South East Asia compilations and on TALKING COCK (The Movie).
With the release of MARINA XAVIER'S - WHEN THE WORLD WAS YOUNG" there is no doubt that jazz aficionados will find it timely and as an album that has been long awaited. With a stellar line up of musicians and a wonderful selection of tunes including the self penned "Angel"......once again rave reviews. Enjoy! In 2004, Marina released an exciting new album.
