Marlo sings provocatively about the world that surrounds him. The twenty-two-year-old from Hamburg wraps his critical lyrics in a rough pop guise. His powerful voice carries us through nostalgic melodies and rousing rhythms. For as long as he can remember, he has been processing his worries and fears in his own lyrics. His first single "Paradies" (Paradise) was born out of the question of where he would go after school. "I'm building my own paradise" has been his motto ever since. So in the summer, Marlo and his band travel to Lisbon with their instruments in the trunk of their car to record his debut album on the Atlantic coast. In collaboration with Florian Luig and Thomas Böck, he created songs such as "Ein Letztes Liebeslied", in which Marlo sings about the romantic end of the world. In "Christian Lindner", Marlo vents his frustration with liberalism, but without holding his index finger too high.
