Marie Dahlstrom announces a deluxe edition of her spectacular 2023 album 'A Good Life' and shares new single "Nothing On You" featuring London afrobeats / R&B sensation Odeal.

Produced by her partner Dan Diggas - who has previously lent his talents to the works of Mahalia and Central Cee, "Nothing On You" is anchored by a simple guitar motif and driven by the stunning powerhouse vocal combination of Dahlstrom and Odeal, with the latter noting the song's intention to exemplify "longing for a deeper connection with a significant other".

Speaking more on the new single, Marie Dahlstrom said: "This song was made in the very first session Odeal and I had together. It was such a natural and smooth process. Daniel’s production provided the perfect foundation and it felt really natural to develop the song. The song is a true love song - feels like a nice way to start the year."

The deluxe edition of Dahlstrom's 2023 album 'A Good Life' includes two previously unheard tracks: "Glass" and today's newly released single "Nothing On You", as well as two new remixes and reworks of album tracks "If I Belong" - with drums courtesy of Samson Jatto (Dave, Dua Lipa, Nao) and bass from Jay Asafo, and "On My Own" featuring new contributions from frequent collaborator London rapper Aligo.

Dahlstrom possesses a voice with the kind of divinity that could only be god-given. Braiding together sun-kissed R&B, Nordic jazz, and resonant neo-soul across her 2023 album 'A Good Life', Dahlstrom constantly pushes the parameters of what R&B is, and can be.

Featuring collaborations with acts including Jay Prince, Kofi Stone, Cory McKenzie Tribbettand Delleile Ankrah, and working with some of her closest musical allies across the album on its production, notably Young Poet/Ninja Tune signee Conor Albert and her partner Dan Diggas - on 'A Good Life' Dahlstrom strove to create a tapestry that presents life completely and truthfully, where leaning into moments of the dark and the light which make the days - and the music - all the richer.

Marie Dahlstrom is supported and praised widely at press by the likes of Billboard, NPR, Complex, The Line Of Best Fit, Mixtape Madness, NYLON, New Wave Magazine,  Wonderland Magazine and more, as well as being listed as a 'Sleeper Pick' by Joe Budden (twice) on The Joe Budden Podcast(the most influential podcast in R&B and hip-hop globally). Marie Dahlstrom has also received substantial radio airplay from BBC 1Xtra DJ’s Jamz Supernova, DJ Target, Toddla T and Rinse FM’s Jyoty.

Marie Dahlstrom headlines Village Underground in London this Thursday 8th February. The deluxe edition of 'A Good Life' is out 13th March via JFH Records. New single "Nothing On You" featuring Odeal is out now.
