Muso’s Guide Introduces… Anya Marina

Anya Marina

But when it comes to her music, Anya turns into a bold songstress. With a cover of rapper T.I.’s ‘Whatever You Like’ and a merchandise roster including a tee shirt of a rainbow-peeing unicorn (yes, you read that right), it’s clear that she’s a special breed of singer-songwriter.

Anya’s second full-length album, Slow & Steady Seduction: Phase II (January 2009, Chop Shop Records), is chock full of clever lyrics and milky vocals atop roaring horns. A former radio DJ and aspiring actress, we think she’s found her true calling.

Anya recently finished two separate tours with The Virgins and Jason Mraz, is currently supporting Eric Hutchinson and Chris Isaak on tour, and will be joining Paolo Nutini for some September shows in the States. Her music has also been featured on hit television shows such as Grey’s Anatomy and Gossip Girl.

**Our favourite picks: ‘All The Same To Me’ and ‘Move You’
