Marco Mahler
wow, I just couldn’t stop listeting to this great music.
Excellent vibrant songs, with calming voice of songwriter Marco Mahler from Switzerland. He has a debut album, Design in Quick Rotation, which has been described as “music that captures the dawn of Sunday morning and embodies it through verse and song.”
Under each gentle melody, Mahler’s whispery vocals seem to be offering access to a profound secret, creating a rare intimacy between artist and listener. Recommendation > deeply moving song ‘Fields‘.
